 Pakistan is ready to discuss freezing the production of nuclear weapons in South Asia, Tasneem Aslam, the Foreign Office spokesperson, said on Saturday. Aslam was commenting on the US suggestion that South Asia freeze all nuclear weapon production. She said, however, that any such move should be done in consultation with Pakistan. Aslam said that Pakistan did not want to enter into a regional arms race, adding that it had been proposing a strategic restraint regime with India. She said that talks could be still held with India on a restraint regime. She said Pakistan had apprehensions on the India-US nuclear deal because it would affect regional stability. |
