NEW DELHI: Pakistan intends to hold talks with India on the sidelines of the Heart of Asia conference scheduled for next week in Amritsar.
This was stated by Pakistan’s High Commissioner to India Abdul Basit while speaking to an Indian news channel on Monday.
The high commissioner said the schedule of Prime Minister’s advisor on Foreign Affairs Sartaj Aziz was not set in stone and if there was an offer of dialogue from India, then it would be accepted by Pakistan.
“We can delay talks for months or even for years. But ultimately, a solution to the problems between India and Pakistan can only come through dialogue, and therefore, both nations must sit and discuss all the issues that confront them,” he said.
Pakistan is participating in the Heart of Asia conference despite continuing Indian aggression at the border.
