No alternative to peace with India (II)

LAHORE: If anyone is a true Pakistani patriot they would not completely agree with the views present in Raza Rumi’s article. Enemies cannot become friends overnight. If we look at Pakistan-India relations since 1947 we see that India has had malicious intentions towards us. It is shameful that we are still extending our hand for friendship. A few days back it was reported that the US and India are pressurising the EU to stop Pakistan from entering into a trade agreement with them. This is the real face of the Indians. We don't want friends who are constantly conspiring against us. Peace talks are just a waste of time. I’m not saying we should fight a war with India but that we should adopt a neutral stance with them.
