Pakistan(National Times)- Former foreign minister and Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari has said that Pakistan\u2019s message of peace will win, and India\u2019s message of war is bound to fail.\u00a0 After completing the visit to the United States, Bilawal, along with a nine-member high-level parliamentary delegation, is currently in the United Kingdom, to present Pakistan\u2019s stance on the recent military confrontation with India and to challenge New Delhi\u2019s narrative at the international level. Members of the parliamentary delegation include Hina Rabbani Khar, Sherry Rehman, Dr Musadik Malik, Khurram Dastgir Khan, Jalil Abbas Jilani, Tehmina Janjua, Bushra Anjum Butt and Syed Faisal Subzwari. Speaking to the media following his meeting at the British Parliament, the 36-year-old politician said that wherever he has travelled, people have supported peace \u2014 not war. \u201cOnly one person, [India’s Prime Minister Narendra] Modi, is insisting on war at all costs,\u201d he asserted, reiterating his call for regional peace through dialogue and diplomacy. The former foreign minister said that British lawmakers had attentively heard Pakistan\u2019s position on key issues, expressing hope that the MPs he met would play their part in supporting peace efforts in South Asia. \u201cPakistan\u2019s message is clear \u2014 we want to establish peace through dialogue and diplomacy,\u201d Bilawal remarked. \u201cPeace in our region is in everyone\u2019s best interest.\u201d He also pointed out the historical ties Britain shares with Pakistan and India, suggesting that the UK could play a constructive role in easing tensions, particularly over the long-standing Kashmir dispute, which he described as the \u201cunfinished agenda of the Partition of the subcontinent.\u201d Bilawal stressed that the large Pakistani diaspora in Britain strongly desires peace in the region. He argued that sustained peace in the region would unlock opportunities for Britain for economic cooperation and trade, including the revival of key transit routes across South Asia. \u201cIf the UK wishes to benefit from the region\u2019s trade potential, peace is a necessary condition,\u201d he said. \u201cTransit routes, if activated, will bring advantages of all sorts.\u201d The politician also criticised India\u2019s current political stance, accusing its leadership of promoting a narrative based on conflict and division. \u201cOur case for peace is strong. India\u2019s case for war is based on lies and division,\u201d he said. \u201cThey want to divide not just their own people but the entire region.\u201d \u201cWherever I\u2019ve travelled, no one has said they want war. Everyone wants peace. The only person demanding war at all costs is Modi,\u201d Bilawal added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
