Washington: Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari has said he is awaiting the formation of a new government in New Delhi to start a “fresh dialogue” with India, PTI reports.
“Democracies have never gone to war. No Pakistani democratic government has gone to war with India. We’ve always wanted peace. We still want peace with India. We want a commercial relationship with them,” Mr. Zardari said.
“I’m waiting for the [Indian general] elections to be over so that all of this rhetoric is over and I can start a fresh dialogue with the Indian government,” Mr. Zardari told CNN in an interview.
