@markhor_islam: In a notable interview, Dr. Abdul Qadeer Khan spoke about Pakistan’s nuclear capability and its role in safeguarding the country’s sovereignty. He emphasized that Pakistan possesses the strength to respond firmly if faced with an external threat, highlighting the importance of nuclear deterrence in maintaining national security. Recalling statements from the era of former President Zia-ul-Haq, Dr. Khan referred to the widely remembered remark that Pakistan’s nuclear weapons could be delivered “even on a donkey” if required—an expression intended to convey determination and resolve rather than a literal plan. His remarks reflected the strategic thinking behind Pakistan’s nuclear program: maintaining a credible deterrent so that any attempt to threaten the country would carry serious consequences.
