I will not make a U-turn on Kashmir, says president
2005-04-27
"I will continue going in circles!"
President Pervez Musharraf on Tuesday resolved that he would not make a U-turn on Kashmir by any means. Speaking to PTV, President Musharraf said he wanted to comfort Kashmiris by resolving the Kashmir issue once and for all. "My intentions are very clear. I want to comfort Kashmiris and lessen the suffering they have been bearing for decades," he said, adding that all his efforts aimed at resolving the Kashmir dispute with India. However, he said that Kashmir was a difficult and complicated matter between India and Pakistan and therefore no timeframe could be given for the resolution of the dispute. "I want to tell all Pakistanis and Kashmiris that I am doing this with all my sincerity, more for Kashmiris than for Pakistanis," he added. President Musharraf said a lot of thought and sensibility was required to carry forward talks on Kashmir. "I expect all Pakistanis to support me in my effort to resolve the Kashmir dispute," he said.
