Covert talks with India - Israel: Federal government official stance reported

ISLAMABAD - Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Chaudhry Fawad Hussain Saturday categorically stated that Pakistan would not hold any covert talks either with India or Israel.

The minister was reacting to the tweet of PML (N) leader Ahsan Iqbal who sought clarification from the government over reports circulating on the social media that an Israeli aircraft allegedly visited Islamabad.

Chaudhry Fawad Hussain said neither Imran Khan was Nawaz Sharif, nor his cabinet had pseudo intellectuals. The Minister said Pakistan would not have been facing the current situation, had the former rulers shown concerns and taken steps to address the problems.

He said that the opposition should not worry as Pakistan is today in safe hands. - APP/AFP
