PM Shehbaz Sharif offers 'sincere' talks with Narendra Modi to resolve disputes including Jammu and Kashmir

Islamabad: Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif has offered to hold serious and sincere talks with Indian counterpart Narendra Modi with issues even ranging to Jammu and Kashmir.

Speaking during an interview with Al Arabiya news channel, the prime minister was quoted as saying by APP: "My message to the Indian leadership and Prime Minister Narendra Modi is that let us sit down on the table and have serious and sincere talks to resolve our burning issues like Kashmir.”

He said Pakistan and India need to live with each other.

“It is up to us to live peacefully and make progress or quarrel with each other, and waste time and resources. We have three wars with India and it only brought more misery, poverty and unemployment to the people. We have learnt our lesson and we want to live in peace provided we are able to resolve our genuine problems," he said.

“We want to alleviate poverty, achieve prosperity, and provide education and health facilities and employment to our people and not waste our resources on bombs and ammunition, that is the message I want to give to Prime Minister Modi,” he added.

The Pakistan PM said both countries are nuclear powered and armed to teeth.

"If God forbid a war breaks out who will live to tell what happened," he said.
