BRAS, the umbrella organisation of Baloch armed forces BLA, BLF, BRA and BRG, thoroughly reject Barrick Gold Corporation’s agreement with Pakistani state to ransack Balochistan’s resources.
Spokesman of BRAS Baloch Khan says that they warn Barrick Gold to stay away from Reko Diq or they will go to any extent to defend Baloch motherland and its resources.
He said that Balochistan is an occupied land where occupying Pakistani state has installed a puppet government to provide sham legality to its expansionist and exploitative designs. Ignoring these historical facts and ground realities, Barrick Gold has entered into a deal with occupying forces and its puppets to loot Baloch resources on cheap terms. So that’s why, the defense forces of Baloch nation reserve the right to adopt same policies against Barrick Gold that they have for the occupying state.
Baloch Khan more distant added that they warned Barrick Gold Corporation to immediately walk away from the Reko Diq deal as the Baloch freedom fighters have been ordered to target Barrick Gold’s employees, security, installations and any convoys in Balochistan. Barrick Gold would be solely responsible for any of their losses.
Baloch forces had given similar warnings to China but they ignored our warnings and have been bearing the consequences. Today China has failed to accomplish any of its projects in Balochistan. Barrick Gold should learn from China’s mistakes to avoid suffering from similar consequences.
Baloch Khan further said that the true representative in any agreement with foreign countries and investors regarding Baloch resources would be a democratic government after Balochistan’s independence. Any deals before then would be considered as involvement in crimes of the occupying state.
