Imran Khan ready to talk to Modi over phone: Pak FM

Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan is ready to talk to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the telephone to offer him peace. Is Modi ready for it? asked Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi in an exclusive interview with Geo News.

"We are ready for every eventuality. If they give priority to peace, we are ready for peace. If they prioritise dialogue, we are ready for dialogue," Qureshi said.

The foreign minister also confirmed the receipt of India's dossier on the Pulwama attack. "Let's talk together on the basis of the dossier," he continued. "I am ready to talk. You want to talk about terrorism, I am ready. You want to talk about peace, I am ready. You want to make it a common challenge, I am ready."

"What actually do you want? Do you want to disrupt regional stability for politics? Do you want to waste innocent lives? This is not a wise strategy. This is neither wisdom, nor statesmanship."
