New Delhi stalling regional peace process, says Moeed Yusuf
Calling India a “spoiler” in Afghanistan, Pakistan’s National Security Advisor Moeed Yusuf said he would not accept the Modi government’s invitation to the meeting of regional security chiefs being organised in Delhi next week.
“I won’t go,” said Mr. Yusuf in response to questions in Islamabad about Pakistan’s decision. “A spoiler cannot try to become a peacemaker,” he added.
Mr. Yusuf was speaking to the Pakistani media after a meeting with Uzbekistan’s Secretary of the Security Council Lt. Gen. Viktor Makhmudov, who was in Islamabad for the Establishment of a Joint Security Commission with Pakistan, and has also been invited to the conference in Delhi.
