Pakistan's National Security Advisor Lt.Gen. (Retired) Nasser Khan Janjua has said that Pakistan and India cannot remain enemies forever and need to engage with each other to resolve their disputes.
His remark comes amid soaring tensions between the two neighbors, post Pakistan awarding a death sentence to Indian national Kulbhushan Jadhav on charges of espionage and sabotage.
On Tuesday, External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj warned Islamabad that it risked damaging bilateral ties with New Delhi if it went ahead with the execution of Yadav.
Janjua made the remark during a meeting with Canadian High Commissioner Perry John Calderwood. He also discussed the regional dynamics, bilateral relations, counter-terrorism cooperation and implementation of the National Action Plan, reports the Dawn.
He underlined the need for a non-discriminatory approach in considering Pakistan's membership for the Nuclear Suppliers Group.
