MUZAFFARABAD: In a bid to lessen the number of enemies, the AJK government is considering establishment of better diplomatic ties with Israel, says Prime Minister Sardar Attique Ahmad Khan.
Better diplomatic relations with Israel is the need of the hour in the rapidly changing global scenario, he added while speaking at a seminar here Sunday.
Attique said Pakistan was being accused of weak foreign policy due to the contradictory statements of the Kashmiri leadership. He urged the Kashmiri leaders to adopt a common stance to brush aside the allegations against Pakistan.
He said, "Each inch of Gilgit-Baltistan is the part of AJK and we will not accept incomplete state." Attique said his government was considering increase in number of seats in the Legislative Assembly.
Speaking on the occasion, Kashmir American Council Chairman Ghulam Nabi Fai said the fate of Kashmir was being decided in Washington or Tokyo instead of Srinagar, Muzaffarabad, Islamabad or New Delhi.
"International community in general and the United States in particular respect the aspirations of Kashmiri people," he added. "We can't even think about compromise on the interest of the state," he said, adding that their foremost objective was to pursue India to come to talks table in which the Kashmiri leadership had been succeeded. He urged the Kashmiris not curse those who speak in favour of their interests.
