'There could be accidents, there could be miscalculation, and the sole point is Kashmir,' Pakistani Ambassador to the U.S. Masood Khan told Newsweek.
Pakistan's envoy to the United States has expressed his country's willingness to engage with India in the interest of de-escalating their tense ties at a time when the Islamic Republic is facing an array of economic, political and security crises at home.
Khan, who served as president of the Pakistan-administered Azad Kashmir throughout these volatile developments, said that a"precarious situation" still exists along what's known as the Line of Control, which serves as a de facto boundary between the two countries, as long as diplomatic endeavors are not successful in resolving the decades-old dispute.
"We want to live in peace with India," he added,"provided we are able to resolve our genuine problems.":"Let's sit down at the table and have serious and sincere talks to resolve our burning issues, like Kashmir, where flagrant violations of human rights are taking place day in and day out." India, for its part, has vehemently defended its efforts in Jammu and Kashmir as an effort to stamp out militancy New Delhi blames on Islamabad, while at the same time bringing badly needed development to local communities.
