Bilawal Bhutto stresses political solution to Balochistan's issues
2025-09-26
[GEO.TV] To bring permanent peace to the province, Pakistain Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari said on Thursday that terrorism remains the country's biggest challenge, stressing that Balochistan
...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it...
's issues must be resolved through political consensus to ensure decisions benefit its people.

"Terrorism is Pakistain's biggest challenge, but Balochistan's solution is political... Decisions must be taken with consensus so that people truly benefit," said Bilawal while addressing a presser in Bloody Karachi
...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It is among the largest cities in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous...

The country, particularly in the bordering provinces of KP and Balochistan, has witnessed a surge in cross-border terror incidents since Taliban

rulers returned to Afghanistan in 2021.

In August, the incidents surged by 74% compared to July, according to a report by the Pakistain Institute for Conflict and Security Studies (PICSS).

Last month, the United States formally designated the Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) and its bully boy faction, the Majeed Brigade, as a Foreign Terrorist Organisation (FTO).

The move also adds the Majeed Brigade as an alias to BLA's previous listing as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT) group. The BLA, first designated as an SDGT in 2019, has grabbed credit for multiple attacks since then, including suicide kabooms carried out by the Majeed Brigade.
