The special assistant to Pakistan's prime minister on foreign affairs, Syed Tariq Fatemi, has said that the country is ready to hold talks with India on all outstanding issues.
According to the Dawn, his statement came while he was addressing a seminar on "Pakistan India Relations - Emerging Relatives" organised by the Karachi Council of Foreign Relations (KCFR) on Tuesday.
