Says small men occupying big offices do not have the vision to see the larger picture.
Islamabad (Pakistan Point News – 22nd September, 2018) Prime Minister Imran Khan has said that he is disappointed at the ‘arrogant’ and ‘negative’ response by the Indian side to hi offer to restore dialogue between the two countries.
In a tweet on Saturday, the prime minister expressed his disappointment after India rejected to hold talks at foreign minister level on the sidelines of 73rd United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) session.
Taking a dig at Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, PM Imran said that all my life I have come across small men occupying big offices who do not have the vision to see the larger picture.
“Disappointed at the arrogant & negative response by India to my call for resumption of the peace dialogue. However, all my life I have come across small men occupying big offices who do not have the vision to see the larger picture,” he wrote in his tweet.
PM Imran has on Thursday written a letter to his Indian counterpart Narendra Modi and called for a resumption of dialogue between the two countries.
He had also proposed a meeting between the foreign ministers of the two countries on the sidelines of the 73rd UNGA session.
Hours after reports circulated regarding PM Imran's letter to Modi, Indian Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) spokesperson Raveesh Kumar confirmed that Shah Mehmood Qureshi and Sushma Swaraj would meet on the sidelines of the UNGA.
However, on Friday, the Indian MEA spokesperson announced the cancellation of the meeting, citing the alleged killing of three Indian police officers and a personnel of the Border Security Force (BSF) in Indian-occupied Kashmir (IoK) as the reason.
