Pakistani defence minister Khawaja Asif is right about his country’s record on terrorism. But will his government correct its course?

In a rare moment of candour, Pakistan's defence minister Khawaja Asif admitted in parliament that the rise of terrorism in his country was the outcome of its involvement in the two wars in Afghanistan, the first in the 1980s against the USSR-backed regime in Kabul, and then as part of the war against terror in the 2000s. “We deny our history and did not accept our mistakes. Terrorism is a blowback of the mistakes committed by dictators in the past,” the minister said.
