Pakistan is criticizing a new U.S. report saying the south Asian country's weapons are a continued threat to regional American interests.
The report says Pakistan's production of nuclear weapons will introduce new risks for escalation dynamics and security in the region.
Foreign Ministry spokesman Mohammad Faisal criticized the report Thursday for its “singular negative focus” on Pakistan.
He pointed to India as having the “fastest growing” stockpiles of nuclear weapons.
Pakistani officials maintain that the nation's short-range nuclear-capable missile would deter bigger neighbor India from imposing a sudden, limited assault with conventional forces under New Delhi's "Cold Start" doctrine.
Pakistan’s fragile relations with the U.S. have deteriorated lately over allegations Islamabad covertly maintains ties with the Taliban and other militant groups fighting American forces in Afghanistan.
Pakistani authorities deny any links with the militants.
巴基斯坦批评美国新公布的一份报告。这份报告说,巴基斯坦的武器库仍然对美国在那一区域的利益构成威胁。
美国报告说,巴基斯坦的核武器生产将会给其所在区域带来风险,增添变数,削弱安全。
巴基斯坦外交部发言人费萨尔星期四批评说,美国的报告专门从负面的角度看到巴基斯坦。他表明,印度核武器库的增长是最快的。
巴基斯坦官员坚持认为,巴基斯坦可携带核弹头的短程导弹可以威慑其更强大的邻国印度,让它不敢根据其“冷启动”理论对巴基斯坦发动常规军队的突然袭击。
巴基斯坦和美国的脆弱关系最近进一步恶化。美国指称,巴基斯坦与塔利班以及其他在阿富汗与美军作战的激进组织秘密保持联系。
巴基斯坦当局否认它与激进组织有任何联系。
