New Delhi, Dec 16 – Pakistan is waiting for India’s response to “repeated requests” for dialogue, says Pakistan High Commissioner Shahid Malik.
“It is unfortunate that India and Pakistan are at a stage where there is nodialogue,” Malik said at a book launch function here Tuesday evening.
“We have made repeated requests for dialogue and Pakistan is awaiting a response,” the envoy said.
Recalling the controversial Sharm-el Sheikh joint statement signed in July this year between Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and his Pakistani counterpart Yusuf Raza Gilani, Malik said the two leaders had agreed that dialogue was the only way to move forward.
“We hope that the July statement will be acted upon soon,” he said.
The relationship between the two countries was frozen after last year’sMumbai terrorist attack, which India blamed on Pakistan-based terror outfits.
India has been asking Pakistan to bring the perpetrators of the 26/11 attacksto justice before restoring the dialogue process.
