Pakistan to raise water issue with India, says Qureshi | Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi has said that all the concerns of Pakistan , and the issue of water would also be discussed with India. He reiterated on Friday
that Pakistan and India should focus on resumption of dialogue, which would clinch
peace for the whole South Asian region. Talking to a local news channel from New
York, Qureshi said that his meeting with his Indian counterpart SM Krishna would
be held on September 27, adding terrorism is not only their concern, but it was
concern of Pakistan also. "In my opinion, resumption of composite dialogue is
the only way to resolve all the issues which are of great importance for both
the countries," he said. Qureshi said approach of Pakistan is constructive and
attitude was positive; but keeping in mind the rift among the political forces
in India "we should not have high expectations, and no major breakthrough should
be expected in coming meeting with Indian Foreign Minister". "But this is a process,
and we must remain engage in this process," The News quoted him, as saying. Replying
to a question, Qureshi said Pakistan is a responsible country and is fully aware
of its defence needs, and also gave importance to nuclear non-proliferation. "Our
view point is that we have to move forward keeping in mind the strategic importance
of South Asia ," he added. |
