Islamabad : Pakistan has claimed it had gone “out of the way” in its peace overtures towards India but failed to get a positive response, after US President Barack Obama asked the two nations to begin talks on “less controversial issues” and resolve their differences.
Claiming that Islamabad wants early resumption of the composite dialogue process with India, Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari said that his country stands for peace in the region and the world.
Pakistan, he said, was “cooperating in unearthing and bringing to justice the perpetrators of militant acts”.
“The democratic civil government went out of the way in our peace overtures towards India. It would have been most helpful if our initiatives had been welcomed and responded to in a positive manner,” Zardari told delegates of a national conference of the South Asia Free Media Association at the presidency Sunday.
