New Delhi: In a forthright message to Pakistan, India today said its posture of “compulsive hostility” will not help a “serious and sustained” dialogue between the two countries.
Noting that the country “walked the extra mile in reaching out” to its neighbours, External Affairs Minister S M Krishna said, “We earnestly hope that our neighbour would see the merit in constructive engagement and discard the posture of compulsive hostility.”
During an exclusive interview to PTI, the minister said, “Our only expectation from Pakistan is to dismantle the terror infrastructure that operates from the territories under its control. A serious and sustained dialogue can thrive only in a peaceful and terror free climate.”
He also said that terrorism, whether state-sponsored or not, has no place in today’s world and needs to be rooted out through concerted efforts of each and everyone.
