Islamabad, Feb 12: President Pervez Musharraf today said Pakistan should not be blamed for everything that is happening inside Afghanistan and vowed his country would continue its anti-terror campaign. Addressing senior military officers at the National Defence College, Musharraf said there was a need to sternly deal with the situation in the regions of Pakistan bordering Afghanistan. ''On our western borders not everything that is happening in Afghanistan is happening from our side,''Musharraf said. Afghan authorities regularly complain that radical Taliban militia as well as remnants of al-Qaeda are using Pakistani soil for terrorist activities.
''But let us not bluff ourselves,'' Musharraf said. ''something is definitely happening there and we must stop it.''
Musharraf's warning came against a backdrop of reports from Washington that the Afghanistan-based American marines might be preparing another campaign against moslem militants.
