Letter Published in The National UAE on 25 Nov 18 Karachi attacks will not help terrorists achieve their aims   I have just read your article Pakistan militants attack Chinese Consulate in­ Karachi (­November 24). This brutal attack, carried out by ­Balochistan separatists in the port city Karachi, is to be condemned.Terrorists and militants targeting innocent people of other nationalities in their embassies and consular ­buildings is ­absolutely unacceptable. The assault was claimed by the ­Balochistan Liberation Army. Three attackers arrived at the consulate in a car filled with explosives.Pictures of the attack posted on social media outlets showed smoke rising from the surrounding area.The reason for this attack may be the fear of the ­militants that the Chinese, along with Pakistan’s military, are suppressing their ambition for a separate state.Killing innocent people will not yield their desired result. This is a sad state of affairs indeed.K Ragavan, Bengaluru
