We do not want to go towards war with India: Kakar

Says world would find Pakistan as a responsible partner in making peace.

ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Anwaarul Haq Kakar has warned that it would be a matter of concern for not only India and Pakistan but the entire world if a chance for peace is denied in South Asia.

In his interview to a TV channel, the interim premier said that Pakistan dies not want to go towards war with India.

“Terming the Kashmir a core issue does not mean that we want war all the time with India,” PM Kakar said, adding that Islamabad’s traditional and historical relationship with New Delhi had not been friendly.

The relationship between the two neighbouring nuclear countries further deteriorated after Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government rushed through a presidential decree to abolish Article 370 of the constitution which grants special status to Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) on August 5, 2019.

Regarding the restoration of ties with India, Premier Kakar said the decision to this effect should be made by Indian polity and consciousness, and the world will find Pakistan as a responsible partner.
