Interior Minister Rehman Malik – File Photo by APP

ISLAMABAD: Federal Interior Minister Rehman Malik has said that Pakistan itself has the capability to launch an offensive against terrorists.

The Interior Minister said that Pakistan will not tolerate any foreign intervention on its soil.

"We are jointly fighting against the enemy but terrorists are taking the advantage due to the lack of a joint strategy," he said.

Pakistan has been extending all possible cooperation to the United States in its war on terrorism; therefore, the United States should respect the sovereignty of Pakistan.

Rejecting the US allegations about ISI-Haqqani ties, Malik said that if the United States has any sort of information in this connection they should share that with Pakistan.
