Sharif to Obama: Discuss Kashmir issue during your India visit
Sharif made the request when President Obama telephoned him on Friday.
Sources said the US President reportedly called the Pak PM informing him about his forthcoming visit to India to attend the Republic Day celebrations as the Chief Guest.
“The Prime Minister also urged President Obama to take up the cause of Kashmir with the Indian leadership, as its early resolution would bring enduring peace, stability and economic cooperation to Asia,” said a statement from the Pakistan Prime Minister’s Office.
Reports said Sharif also recalled an invitation he had extended to Obama last year in Washington.
“The President also assured the Prime Minister that he would undertake a visit to Pakistan at an early date, as soon as the situation normalises in the country,” the statement said.
