Pakistan's Adviser to Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on Foreign Affairs and National Security Sartaj Aziz has said that the country does not expect any breakthrough on resumption of bilateral talks with India till the time the Modi-administration is in-charge.
According to Dawn News, Aziz spoke in Islamabad following the annual conference of the Pakistan Institute of Development Economics.
He said that it is India's responsibility to resume the talks now since it suspended the dialogue earlier.
India had called off foreign secretary-level bilateral talks with Pakistan in August following the criticism of Pakistani High Commissioner Abdul Basit's meeting with Hurriyat leader Shabir Shah.
He also said that since "bilateral-ism has failed on Kashmir", Pakistan is seeking international community's engagement on the matter.
