Pakistan should improve its relations with India: AQ Khan
ISLAMABAD: Disgraced Pakistani
nuclear scientist AQ Khan, known for
his anti-India stance, has said
Pakistan should improve relations
with India in order to counter alleged US plans to divide the country.
"The US agenda regarding Pakistan is very clear. It wants to divide Pakistan and wants to limit the country merely to the Punjab.
"The US wants to get a no-war pact
signed with India after naming the
Punjab as Pakistan whereas we
should improve relations with and
adopt a friendly attitude towards
India, instead of signing a no-war pact with her," Khan said.
Khan said Pakistan's relations with
India were "heading in the right
direction nowadays".
Pakistan should promote friendly relations with India while sticking to
its stance, he said in an interview with the Jang media group.
He said he does not want to play a
role in national politics but has
launched the Tehrik Tahaffuz-e-
Pakistan party to protect the country.
He further said he does not want to
assume power but wants to bring
good and clean people in power.
President Asif Ali Zardari was "far
ahead of General Ziaul Haq" and had beaten former premier Nawaz Sharif in the political arena, Khan claimed.
He said a government that has a
democratic face and acts on the
dictates of the US, like the current
administration, is highly suitable to
Washington.
Khan claimed the government and
opposition were equally responsible for the unrest, lawlessness and instability in Pakistan.
Sharif cooperated with Zardari under the Charter of Democracy signed by the PPP and PML-N.
"He believed that the government of Zardari will last just a few months or a maximum of two years and then he will be the only successor.
"Because of the same confidence and misunderstanding, he did not even get his share for extending
cooperation and did not demand the offices of the Prime Minister, Speaker of the National Assembly or the office of the Senate Chairman," he said.
Referring to the upcoming general
election, Khan said the claim of the
Supreme Court that it had closed all
doors for the army to come to power was meaningless because if the army wants, it can assume power and create a justification for assuming power.
If the army wants, it could also hold
elections on scheduled time. Khan claimed Pakistan's nuclear
programme was currently 100
percent safe but if any dictator
assumed power, nothing could be
said about the safety of the
programme.
