No talks with India until situation in Kashmir changes, Imran tells US senators

Islamabad: Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan told a visiting US Congressional delegation that talks with India were out of question in view of the situation in Kashmir after India revoked Jammu and Kashmir’s special status.
Khan said there would be no talks with India during a meeting with US senators Chris Van Hollen and Maggi Hassan, who met to share their observations with the prime minister about their visit to Pakistan-administered Kashmir on Sunday, Geo News reported.
Khan said he was the biggest supporter of Pakistan-India talks; however, it is impossible until the situation is changed for the better in Kashmir.
But India has pointed out to Pakistan that as long as it supports cross-border terrorism, New Delhi will not resume talks with Islamabad.
Khan also thanked the US senators for cooperation on the issue of Kashmir.
Hollen is part of a group of US senators who have expressed concern over the human rights situation in Kashmir, the report said.
US Congress members Tahir Javed and US charge d affairs Paul Jones were also a part of the delegation that met Khan, the report said. PTI
