🚨🇵🇰⚡️🇦🇫 Asif Warns: “If Dialogue Fails, It’s Open War”

Talks between Pakistan and Afghanistan have begun in Istanbul 🇹🇷, following the Doha ceasefire. Defence Minister Khawaja Asif confirmed the dialogue and admitted ties with Kabul are “very poor,” warning that if talks fail, Pakistan will wage open war against the Taliban regime to defend its people. He said the Doha round brought a short lull in cross-border attacks, but the agreement is still fragile.

🌍 Analysis:

Asif’s words mark a shift from diplomacy to deterrence. Islamabad’s patience is running out, the Istanbul talks are the final test of Kabul’s will to act against the TTP. Pakistan has signaled that peace remains possible, but only through action. If militancy continues, Pakistan’s next move will be decisive, not diplomatic.

⚠️ 🇵🇰⚡️🇦🇫 BREAKING: Talks between Pakistan and the Afghan Taliban have stalled following failed attempts to reach an agreement in Istanbul.

Despite mediation efforts in Doha and Istanbul, both rounds have ended without progress, primarily due to the Afghan Taliban’s reluctance to meet Pakistan’s clear and straightforward demands.

Pakistan’s stance remains firm: the patronage and protection of terrorist groups like the TTP is unacceptable. However, the Afghan Taliban continue to stall and avoid taking any decisive action against the TTP, exposing a deeper alignment between the TTA and TTP.

Geoanalytical assessments further reveal that the TTP and TTA share not only ideology but also operational goals, they are two sides of the same coin. The Afghan Taliban’s hesitation to act against the TTP confirms their unwillingness to disrupt these links.

Reports suggest the Taliban have even offered to relocate TTP elements within Afghanistan, once again providing them with a safe haven rather than dismantling their networks.

A terrorist group protecting another terrorist group — this reality speaks for itself. The Afghan Taliban regime continues to prove itself a source of instability, pursuing an agenda that threatens peace in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and the wider region.

Pakistan has made its position crystal clear:
➡️ No room for terrorism.
➡️ No tolerance for cross-border militancy.

As stated by Pakistan’s Defence Minister, if the Taliban remain unwilling to cooperate, Islamabad will not hesitate to take decisive action.

The world is watching — and the facts are undeniable.

🚨🇵🇰🤝🇸🇦 NEW: Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif departs for Saudi Arabia on an official visit, following a special invitation from Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

🚨⚡️🇵🇰🇵🇸/🇮🇱 NEW: There’s been a lot of buzz on Twitter claiming Pakistan is due to send ground troops to Gaza as part of the “stabilisation/peacekeeping” force proposed in the 20-point plan.

Here’s what the reporting actually shows.

What’s reported

• Israeli outlets (including Ynet and others) say Pakistan may be among the countries under consideration for the international stabilisation force.
• Indonesia has publicly offered troops — reports mention up to 20,000 personnel.

What is not confirmed

• Pakistan has not issued a formal pledge to deploy troops.
• Officials say the matter rests with Pakistan’s leadership, and Islamabad has publicly distanced itself from parts of the published plan.

Why this is still uncertain

Diplomatic offers ≠ signed deployments. Any troop deployment would require political approval, legal/military arrangements, a clear mandate, host-party consent, and coordination with Israel and regional actors — all of which take time and may be contested.

Bottom line

Tweets claiming Pakistan is sending ground troops are premature. Treat them as speculation until Pakistan’s government issues an official announcement.

⚠️🇵🇰⚡️🇦🇫 UPDATE: Istanbul Talks End Without Resolution — Ceasefire Holding but No Breakthrough Achieved

As of October 28, the much-anticipated Pakistan–Afghanistan talks in Istanbul have ended without a formal agreement. Despite three days of negotiations mediated by Turkey and Qatar, both delegations failed to bridge core differences.

🔹 Pakistan’s position remains unwavering:
Islamabad demands concrete guarantees that Afghan territory will not be used by the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) to launch cross-border attacks.

🔹 The Afghan side, however, continues to resist binding commitments — citing lack of control over TTP elements and internal sovereignty concerns. This refusal to take responsibility has deepened mistrust and exposed the structural ties between the TTP and the Taliban regime.

Reports from the talks confirm that no verification or enforcement mechanism was agreed upon — leaving the ceasefire fragile and dependent on goodwill rather than oversight.

While the guns have temporarily fallen silent, the root cause of tension remains unresolved. The Taliban’s reluctance to dismantle or even distance itself from the TTP underscores an uncomfortable truth: 👉 Ideological alignment is stronger than diplomatic pressure.

Pakistan has made its red lines unmistakable:
➡️ No sanctuary for terror groups.
➡️ No compromise on national security.

Should diplomacy fail again, Islamabad has signaled readiness to act “decisively and unilaterally.”

For now, the ceasefire holds, but peace remains elusive. The next move will define whether this standoff ends at the table or beyond it.
