India needs to change its Pak policies: Qureshi Rezaul H Laskar

Islamabad, Mar 7 (PTI) Pakistan wants to establish friendly relations with
all its neighbours, including India, though New Delhi needs to change its
policies towards Islamabad, Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said
Sunday.

Problems between countries cannot be properly solved without talks
but at the same time, "words alone cannot yield any fruit", Qureshi said
"If talks remain only at the level of words, we will attain no results," he
said. Qureshi said establishing "one-sided relations" by Pakistan will not
lead to unity and solidarity and called on the Indian government to "change
its policies" towards Islamabad. "Recently, the Pakistani government has
attended a meeting at the level of Foreign Secretaries in New Delhi (on
February 25) to hold constructive talks and resolve the conflicts between
the two sides," Qureshi told Iran’s Fars news agency referring to
Islamabad's efforts to settle disputes and differences and normalise ties
with India. Referring to Islamabad's relations with Kabul, he said:
"Afghanistan is our neighbour and bilateral ties with them have been growing
and developing on a daily basis ever since the endorsement of the joint
treaty in January 2009." Pakistan wants to "deepen relations with
Afghanistan" and the government is ready to cooperate with the Afghans "at
their request", he said. The sheltering of three million Afghan refugees
in Pakistan was an example of Islamabad's resolve to maintain solidarity and
unity with Kabul, he added. PTI RHL MYR
