ISLAMABAD, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 22nd May, 2025) Adviser to the Prime Minister on Political Affairs Rana Sanaullah stated Thursday that Pakistan is prepared to participate in direct negotiations with India or mediated talks involving a third country to discuss peace initiatives, counter-terrorism cooperation and a resolution to the Kashmir issue, as per the UN charter.
