LONDON: President Asif Ali Zardari Thursday said the negotiations are the only way which could ensure the peace between Pakistan and India.
Talking to a UK-based newspaper in an interview, he said, ‘In our view, the resumption of a sustained engagement and dialogue with India could ally each others’ concerns. Both Pakistan and India need to avoid hostile propaganda and confrontation against each other.’
The president continued, ‘Pakistan is ready to cooperate with India to punish the perpetrators of terror attacks in Mumbai. Pakistan has assured that it would not allow its territory to be used against India for any acts of terror.’
Zardari underscored that India must also reciprocate and address our concerns which are very genuine, adding the dialogue is the only way forward; absence of dialogue leads to tension.
President Zardari said soon after re-election as prime minister in May, 2009, Manmohan Singh accused Pakistan of involvement in [the] Mumbai incident, adding these allegations were rejected by Pakistan.
