Pakistan on Thursday warned the US and India against any further covert operation in Pakistani territory, saying this would lead to a "terrible catastrophe".
Admitting that the US assault that killed Osama bin Laden did achieve "important results", foreign secretary Salman Bashir told the media: "This cannot be taken as a rule." "There should be no doubt that Pakistan has a capacity to ensure its own defence," he said.
In an apparent reference to India, Bashir said: "Any other country that would ever act (similarly) on the assumption that it has the might. Will find it has made a basic miscalculation." He added: "We see a lot of bravado in our region. From the military, air force, which state that this can be repeated. "We feel that sort of misadventure or miscalculation will result in a catastrophe."
