Security expert Qamar Agha has called Pakistan a 'failed state' and said that it has got no bargaining power either with America or India on the issue of Kashmir.

"Pakistan is a failed state and it has got no bargaining power on neither America nor India. Whatever they have said in the press is to show to their citizens," said Agha.

"India has no issues in talking to Pakistan, provided the cross border infiltration stops. We don't want talks and terrors to go side by side. The problem is Pakistani establishment doesn't want any peace process with India," he added.

Earlier, Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif had asked US President Barack Obama to take up the Kashmir issue with India when he visited the country in January 2015.

Obama, who has been invited to India to be the chief guest on Republic Day, had reportedly called the Pakistan Prime Minister to inform him about his forthcoming visit to India, when Sharif brought up the issue.
