LAHORE: The continuation of the previous government’s policy on the ‘war on terror’ is the right decision and should therefore be pursued in the future, former president General (r) Pervez Musharraf said on Tuesday, Geo News reported.

“I had joined the ‘war on terror’ after careful deliberations,” the channel quoted Musharraf as saying, at a dinner hosted in honour of the recently retired military officers at Army House, Rawalpindi.

Chief of Army Staff Gen Ashfaq Kayani, Admiral (r) Afzal Tahir, Lt Gen (r) Salahuddin Sati, Lt Gen (r) Sabir, Lt Gen (r) Safdar Hussain and Gen (r) Athar Ali Khan attended the dinner.

The former president said national security could not be ensured until terrorism was wiped out. He praised the services of the recently retired military officers, and discussed the security situation in the country with them, the channel said. daily times monitor
