00:07 Nobel winner Malala asks India, Pak to ‘sit down and settle conflict’:
Expressing her concern for people living along both sides of the border, Nobel Laureate and UN messenger of peace Malala Yousafzai urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Pakistani counterpart Imran Khan to show true leadership in this difficult time and settle long-standing Kashmir issue through dialogue.
In a statement which she posted on her Twitter feed, she said she was alarmed by the escalation of tensions between both the countries.
She said, “Everyone aware of the horrors of war would agree that retaliation and revenge is never the right response — once started, it rarely ends. Millions of people are suffering today because of existing wars — we don’t need another.”
The Nobel winner added, “I ask Prime Ministr of Pakistan Imran Khan and Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi to show true leadership in this difficult time: to sit down, shake hands and settle the current conflict and long-standing issue of Kashmir through dialogue.”
