Srinagar: Prime Minister Imran Khan on Saturday welcomed the initiative to restore the ceasefire agreement along the Line of Control (LoC) between India and Pakistan.
However, Khan said that the onus of creating an ‘enabling’ environment between the two countries rests with India.
“I congratulate the entire nation & salute our Armed Forces on the 2nd Anniversary of our response to India’s illegal, reckless military adventure of airstrikes against Pakistan. As a proud & confident nation, we responded with determined resolve at a time & place of our choosing,” he tweeted.
In another tweet, the prime minister praised Pakistan’s decision to return Abhinandan to India, adding that it demonstrated “Pakistan’s responsible behaviour in the face of India’s irresponsible military brinkmanship”.
“We have always stood for peace & remain ready to move forward to resolve all outstanding issues through dialogue,” he tweeted.
