Imran Khan lashes out at Indian PM Narendra Modi

LAHORE: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan has lashed out at Indian PM Narendra Modi.

He blamed Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the deadlock in relations between the South Asian neighbours.

Speaking to reporters in Lahore earlier today, Khan lamented that the Indian premier’s mindset does not allow for negotiations between the two countries.

“Modi’s mindset does not allow for [the negotiations]. I had told Modi [once], no matter what happens the door for negotiations between India and Pakistan must never close,” he said.

Khan’s comments come after a historic meeting between the leaders of North and South Korea on Friday, where they pledged to bring a formal end to the Korean War, 65 years after hostilities ceased.

The thawing of ice between North and South Korea has prompted many in Pakistan and India to feel that the leaders of the two countries should take cue from Korea and move forward from their differences.
