...Adviser to Pak Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on National Security and Foreign Affairs, who believes in goodjihadis and
badjihadis as a matter of national policy...
said on Sunday that the current Indian government under Narendra Modi acts as if it is a regional superpower.
"Modi's India acts as if they are a regional superpower, we are a nuclear-armed country and we know how to defend ourselves," said Aziz.
"We also have evidence of Indian agency RAW's involvement in fuelling terrorism in Pakistain," added Aziz.
He also said that while Pakistain has evidence of Indian involvement in terrorism, India on the other hand only has propaganda against Pakistain.
"Propaganda against Pakistain is more important for the Indians, rather than giving us evidence," stated the adviser to the premier.
Sartaj Aziz also said that India wants normalisation on their own terms, they would like to talk about trade and connectivity but not much else.
He remarked, "If Kashmire is not an issue for India, why have stationed 700,000 troops in Indian-occupied Kashmire?"
The adviser to the premier also stated that India should hold a referendum in occupied Kashmire, and the people would decide their own fate.
"India should realise after the current episode that their tactics are not working, and they need to be sincere about dialogue with Pakistain," added Aziz.
Yesterday, the government decided to cancel the planned meeting of national security advisers with India, citing New Delhi's refusal to allow an expanded agenda and a meeting with Kashmiri leaders.
The Indian external affairs ministry immediately termed the decision "unfortunate" and tried to wash its hands of the controversy that led to the cancellation of the meeting by saying that it "did not set any preconditions".
The decision was announced after Indian External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj virtually set a deadline for Pakistain to decide by midnight if it was ready to go ahead with the talks by agreeing not to meet the Kashmiri leaders and restricting the discussion to terrorism.
