Abu Dhabi: Former Pakistan President General Pervez Musharraf has rejected the prospects of any nuclear attack from Pakistan on India even after the relations between the two nuclear countries have reached “dangerous level”.

He also said that if Pakistan will attack India with one atomic bomb then the neighbouring country could “finish us by attacking with 20 bombs”, reported Dawn Addressing the press conference in UAE on Friday, Musharraf said: “Indian and Pakistan relations have again reached a dangerous level. They will be no nuclear attack.

If we would attack India with one atomic bomb, then the neighbouring country could finish us by attacking with 20 bombs. Then the only solution is that we should first attack them with 50 atom bombs so that they cannot hit us with 20 bombs. Are you ready to first launch an attack with 50 bombs.”

The former president’s comment comes on the heels of Pulwama terror attack that killed 40 CRPF personnel in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pulwama after a Pakistan-sponsored JeM terrorist rammed an IED-laden vehicle into a convoy of the security forces.

The former president said that for establishing a relationship with Tel Aviv, who has long-standing ties with Delhi, “there was a need to break the alliance between India and Israel, and Pakistan could do it very easily.”He also claimed that Israel wanted to establish relations with Pakistan.
