Pakistan’s Armed Forces will play their due part in achieving the vision laid out in the policy, Maj Gen Babar concluded.

National Security Adviser Moeed Yusuf in a tweet said: “After the National Security Committee’s (NSC) endorsement of Pakistan’s first-ever National Security Policy yesterday, the Cabinet has approved it today.”
“It is a truly historic achievement; a citizen-centric comprehensive National Security Policy with economic security at the core will now be pursued in earnest,” he stated.
He further added that this umbrella document will, over time, “help guide sectoral policies for the fulfilment of our national security objectives.”
Acknowledging the efforts of all the stakeholders, he wrote: “I would like to thank the civil and military leadership for all their support and input. The policy would not have seen the light of day without the Prime Minister’s constant leadership and encouragement.”
