Kashmir, water on agenda in any India-Pakistan talks, Khawaja Asif
Meanwhile, Defence Minister Khawaja Asif said on Monday that any future talks between Pakistan and India would center around three critical issues: Kashmir, terrorism, and water disputes, as reported.
Speaking to reporters in Islamabad, the defence minister said, “If talks are held between two nuclear-armed neighbors, they will focus on Kashmir, terrorism, and water-related matters,” he said.
The minister highlighted that terrorism has affected the region for the past two to three decades, with Pakistan remaining the biggest victim.
“It is ironic that the country most affected by terrorism is being blamed for it and even attacked,” he remarked.
Calling for a peaceful resolution to the longstanding Kashmir issue, Khawaja Asif said, “This is a golden opportunity for both Pakistan and India to resolve the Kashmir dispute.”
He also acknowledged a recent development in the international discourse on Kashmir, crediting former U.S. President Donald Trump for raising the issue.
