Pak threatens India: We are a nuclear power, and know how to defend ourselves, says Sartaj Aziz

Islamabad, Aug 24: Adviser to the Pakistan Prime Minister on Foreign Affairs and National Security Sartaj Aziz alleged that Narendra Modi government acts as if it is a regional superpower.

"India acts as if they are a regional superpower, we are a nuclear-armed country and we know how to defend ourselves," Sartaj Aziz was quoted as saying by Dawn online on Sunday.

Pakistan is a nuclear power: Aziz

"We also have evidence of Indian agency RAW's involvement in fuelling terrorism in Pakistan," added Aziz.

"Propaganda against Pakistan is more important for the Indians, rather than giving us evidence," stated Aziz.

He also alleged that India wants talks on their own terms. He questioned 700,000 Indian troops presence in Indian-occupied Kashmir.
Aziz advised India to hold a referendum in occupied Kashmir, and the people would decide their own fate.

"India should realise after the current episode that their tactics are not working, and they need to be sincere about dialogue with Pakistan," added Aziz.

NSA level talk between India and Pakistan called off citing former's refusal to allow an expanded agenda and a meeting with Kashmiri leaders.

The meeting between the two countries' security advisers was supposed to signal the resumption of talks between India and Pakistan.
