Pakistani FM Ishaq Dar has called for a "composite dialogue" with India to address all outstanding issues. His remarks come in the wake of a ceasefire agreement between the two countries.
"We have told the world that we will hold a composite dialogue," he said while speaking in Pakistan ’s senate, as per a report from news agency ANI, which cited newspaper Dawn.
He also suggested that a political dialogue will ultimately have to take place to resolve the issues between the two nations.
The Pakistan Army had agreed to extend the ceasefire with India till Sunday during a phone call between the two DGMOs on Thursday. There was, however, no clarification from the Army on this.
PM Modi has reiterated India’s firm stance that any future discussion with Pakistan will focus solely on terrorism and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.
"I would also like to tell the global community that our stated policy has been: if there are talks with Pakistan, it will be only on terrorism; and if there are talks with Pakistan, it will be only on Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK)," said PM Modi in his address to the nation following Operation Sindoor.
"The way the Pakistani army and the Pakistan government are encouraging terrorism, it will destroy Pakistan one day. If Pakistan wants to survive, it will have to destroy its terror infrastructure. There is no other way to peace," he added.
What happened so far
To avenge the killings of 26 people in J&K's Pahalgam terror attack, India launched Operation Sindoor on the intervening night of May 6 and 7. Under the operation, the armed forces targeted nine terror sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, killing over 100 terrorists.
Pakistan carried out multiple missile and drone attacks on May 8, 9, and 10. In response, the Armed Forces launched strong counter-attacks on several Pakistani military installations. On May 10, both sides agreed to a ceasefire.
