Islamabad: Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar has urged for “composite dialogue” with India to settle all controversial issues, Dawn reported, days after India successfully destroyed nine terror camps located deep inside Pakistan and damaged many of its airfields. Following an agreement between India and Pakistan to end hostilities, he made this comment.

Speaking to the Pakistani Senate, he said that military-to-military cooperation had allowed the truce to be extended until May 18, according to Dawn. Regarding this assertion, the Indian side has not yet responded.

Ishaq Dar went on to say that in order to address the issues between the two countries, political discussion will eventually need to occur. Ishaq Dar said, “We have told the world that we will hold a composite dialogue.”

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has reaffirmed that any future talks would only address terrorism and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir, but India’s position is unwavering.

“I would also like to tell the global community that our stated policy has been: if there are talks with Pakistan, it will be only on terrorism; and if there are talks with Pakistan, it will be only on Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK),” Prime Minister Modi said in his speech to the country after Operation Sindoor.

Prime Minister Modi issued a warning that Pakistan may be overthrown if it continues to sponsor terrorism. He went on to say that without dismantling the infrastructure supporting terrorism, peace cannot be achieved.

“Pakistan will eventually be destroyed by the way the Pakistani government and army support terrorists. Pakistan must eliminate its infrastructure for terrorism if it hopes to survive. “There is no alternative path to peace,” he said.

After the Pahalgam assault, which left 26 people dead and several more wounded, tensions between India and Pakistan increased.

Over 100 terrorists connected to groups such as the Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM), Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), and Hizbul Mujahideen (HM) were killed in the early hours of May 7 when the Indian Armed Forces launched Operation Sindoor in response to the Pahalgam attack. The operation targeted nine terror sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK).

Following the attack, India launched a coordinated attack that damaged radar infrastructure, communication centers, and airfields across Pakistani airbases. Pakistan responded with cross-border shelling across the Line of Control and Jammu and Kashmir, as well as attempts at drone attacks along the border regions. An agreement to end hostilities was struck between India and Pakistan on May 10.
