London:
India's refusal to talk to Pakistan till it takes credible action against the perpetrators of 26/11 is clearly unnerving the Zardari government.
Speaking to NDTV in London, Pakistan's Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said that India must stop being negative or Pakistan too will lose interest in taking the dialogue process forward if India keeps refusing to talk.
"We are no longer living in denial. We are saying yes, we are facing a challenge but we cannot face it alone. We need a regional approach. India is an important regional player and it has to act responsibly. It has to be positive. You don't have to be negative. Now if you're negative, you're not helping your case. India says we will not talk. There will come a stage when Pakistan says so be it," said Qureshi.
Qureshi also added, "India's Foreign Minister S M Krishna had promised to come back after consulting his leadership but there has been nothing from him so far. They are still sticking to the position that Pakistan needs to do more. If you continue to harp on the same thing you will merely vitiate the atmosphere. I want to improve relations between the 2 countries."
