NSA talks won't happen if Pakistan does not agree to India's position: Sushma Swaraj

Pakistan's National Security Advisor Sartaj Aziz on Saturday said India would be blamed by Islamabad if the talks scheduled to be held in New Delhi on Sunday and Monday are not held.

Briefing newspersons, Aziz said India was responsible for the cancellation of the foreign secretary-level talks that were scheduled to be held on August 25, 2014, and added that New Delhi would also be held responsible if the talks of August 23 and 24, 2015 were cancelled.

The reason for this regretful second cancellation, if it happens, will be the same, said Aziz.

India having made it clear that a meeting between the separatists and Aziz was not acceptable to it, the scheduling of the Geelani-Aziz meeting introduced a new twist into the drama.

India has conveyed to Pakistan that it remains committed to talks but the 'new unilateral' conditions imposed by it cannot be the basis for 'going forward.' India had made it clear to Pakistan that a meeting between the separatists and Sartaj Aziz was unacceptable.
