Army Chief General Syed Asim Munir has said loyalty to Pakistan and commitment to the constitutional role is the foremost priority of the Armed Forces of Pakistan.

Addressing the Passing-out parade of 147th PMA Long Course in Kakul today, he said armed forces of Pakistan have the will and capability to protect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the motherland.

He said to us, nothing is more sacred than the safety and security of our people and no duty is more binding than the defence of our motherland.

The COAS once again announced it clearly that our efforts for peace should never be taken as a sign of weakness.

He assured the people of Pakistan that we would never hesitate in rendering any and every sacrifice necessary for the defence of our sacred motherland.

Syed Asim Munir said there is a dire need to identify the exposed and hidden enemies. He said in this regard, there must be a difference between reality and deception.

He said our enemies are hell-bent upon driving a wedge between its people and Armed Forces. He said we will ensure that the bond between Armed Forces and People of Pakistan is preserved and further solidified.

Talking about the efforts taken by Pakistan for peace in Afghanistan, the army chief said stability, security and peace in Afghanistan remain fundamental to our security.

The Army Chief said we will continue to provide political, moral and diplomatic support to our Kashmiri brothers. He said Pakistan firmly stands with its Kashmiri brethren in their historic struggle for basic human rights and their legitimate quest for the right to self-determination.

The Army Chief stressed that the international community must realize that without a just and peaceful resolution to the Kashmir issue, regional peace will forever remain elusive.
