ISLAMABAD: Indian disinformation campaign is once again
working against Pakistan ahead of Financial Action Task Force (FATF) plenary meeting scheduled in Paris from 21 Feb-4 March.
Indian campaign against Pakistan is in play as its media is spreading propaganda that Pakistan may soon enter FATF’s blacklist.
India is trying to influence FATF to achieve its narrow political designs against Pakistan, it deplored.
The report said international experts have rubbished Indian claims that FATF may blacklist Pakistan. South Asian policy expert, Michael Kugelman recently said, “Don’t believe Indian press reports claiming FATF will soon blacklist
Pakistan”.
Similarly, South Asian and Middle East strategic analyst Dr
Claude Rakisits said Pakistan is more likely to be taken off FATF’s grey list, it added.
It lamented that India had long been using global forums for its narrow political designs against Pakistan and was trying to destroy credibility of global institutions like FATF for fulfilling its evil political designs.
The report maintained that the FATF should remove Pakistan from its grey list as it had completed all technical requirements of the international watchdog and there was no justification to keep Pakistan on FATF grey list as it has fulfilled most of its demands.
It said that Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi had also said Pakistan had completed FATF’s technical requirements and there was no justification
to keep Pakistan on the grey list.
The report said that India must not be allowed to use global forums for political purposes, adding the FAFT will lose its credibility if it continues to toe the line of big powers and their favoured states.
Modi-led India will fail in its nefarious designs to push Pakistan into FATF blacklist, the report maintained.
