Pakistan pre-occupied with its own problems now: Farooq

Srinagar, July 12 (UNI) Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Farooq Abdullah today said Pakistan had shown flexibility on the Kashmir problem, but asserted that the present situation in the neighbouring country has put the vexed issue on a back-burner.

Addressing a news conference at the National Conference (NC) headquarters here, he said when India showed its willingness to respond to Pakistan's flexibility, the situation in that country changed significantly.

''Things have drastically changed now. Pakistan is pre-occupied with its own internal problems at present,'' the NC patron added.
