‘Talks not possible with script in one hand and gun in other’

MUMBAI: Minister of State for External Affairs M J Akbar today said that terrorism was the stumbling block between normalising ties with Pakistan.

“Everything is possible. What is impossible is a dialogue between those who like to hold a script in one hand and a gun in the other. That is not possible,” he said.

“When people abandon the gun, nations and people will find a way forward to amity and coexistence,” Akbar said, speaking at the second Gateway of India Geoeconomic Dialogue here this evening.

“Nobody talks under the shadow of a gun,” he added. (AGENCIES)
