ISLAMABAD, Sept 14: Pakistan on Thursday dismissed as a ‘storm in a teacup’ Afghanistan’s criticism of remarks made by President Pervez Musharraf in Brussels that the Taliban were more dangerous than Al Qaeda.
Foreign Office spokesperson Tasnim Aslam said that President Musharraf was talking about the agreement signed by Pakistan with its tribes in North Waziristan on Sept 5.
“At no stage, the president equated Pashtuns (ethnic people) with the Taliban,” she said.
APP adds: The spokesperson explained that the Afghan reaction was to an incorrect report by a news agency.
