Pakistan to expose coordinated anti-peace disinformation campaign: Tarar

ISLAMABAD, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 14th May, 2026) Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Attaullah Tarar on Thursday said that a coordinated negative information campaign initiated from outside Pakistan was aimed at creating deliberate confusion and misinformation in an attempt to discredit Pakistan’s role for sustainable peace in the region.

In a post on X, the minister said the malicious campaign was based on unnamed sources and officials and reflected the frustration of those who were weary of peace.

He said facts and verification by credible domestic media sources, as well as multiple fact-check forums, had already exposed the propaganda.

The minister said it was clearly understood that certain elements, mainly detractors of peace, were behind such stories and were unable to come to terms with Pakistan’s role for peace in the region as well as its continued and successful fight against foreign-sponsored and abetted terrorism.

He said elimination of terrorism, resolution of disputes and prevalence of peace perhaps did not suit those behind the malicious campaign.

Attaullah Tarar said Pakistan and its responsible media would continue to expose the nefarious designs of those behind the coordinated campaign.

He also appreciated the efforts and role of Pakistani media and influencers in unmasking the malicious campaign, terming their contribution commendable.
