There it arrived directly from Kabul where held negotiations with the Afghan management. He became the first Indian prime minister who has visited Pakistan since 2004. The Indian leader met the Pakistan prime minister Nawaz Sharif who on coincidence celebrated the birthday this day.
As are reported by the Indian mass media, Mody called Sharif from Kabul and notified on the desire personally to wish that happy birthday, as made some hours later in Lahore. Previously he reported to all about the forthcoming stop on the page in a social network. After an arrival to Lahore, Mody accompanied by the Pakistan leader who itself arrived to welcome the unexpected guest in the airport, proceeded by helicopter to Sharif's residence. Modya's appearance in Pakistan was unexpected even for the ambassador of India in Islamabad who urgently left to Lahore and hardly managed to meet it at the airport. In Modya's residence managed not only to wish Sharif happy birthday, but also to participate in a wedding of his granddaughter, to get acquainted with Sharif's mother, and to carry out with it confidentially negotiations which proceeded about an hour.
the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of India did not open the content of negotiations of leaders, but experts are sure that the main subjects became normalization of the relations between the countries.
- This strategy of retraction which is equitable to our national interests. In this sense, it is the correct step, - the former chief of a staff of land forces of India general Ved Prakash Malik considers. - I think, he created the favorable atmosphere for the solution of vital issues between the countries.
Relationbetween India and Pakistan difficult, and disputes repeatedly poured out in war. The last large armed conflict which has become history as Kargilsky war, took place in 1999. Territorial dispute because of ownership of Kashmir, de facto the Indian territory which settles down in the northwest of the country became the reason of collision. The Indian-Pakistan relations repeatedly became complicated because of continuous firefights near the line of control dividing two states.
Besides political affairs, for both countries it is important to renew trade and economic relations as, despite geographical proximity, business activity between them is low. In the center of attention there is also a gas pipeline construction project from Turkmenistan to India which will pass through the territory of Afghanistan and Pakistan. Start was given to its construction in Ashkhabad on December 13.
the Indian mass media already christened this visit as historical, however opposition parties in India were far from delight.
is "travel" of the prime minister will have serious consequences for national security, - the representative of opposition party declared the Indian national congress Manish Tevari. - He has to explain that changed in the current situation.
Parliamentarians also reproached with p a premiere that he did not begin to discuss this question with parliament which in two days prior to the unplanned Indian-Pakistan summit finished winter session. However, as some experts note, the summit was not unplanned, and carefully prepared in the conditions of privacy. However, also as well as Modya's visit to Afghanistan which it was not declared in advance. Observers believe that the situation in this country also could be one of key subjects of negotiations as Pakistan has on it a great impact.
toAs are written by local mass media, in January of the next year Nawaz Sharif can visit itself New Delhi to meet oppositional leaders of India and to try to convince them of need of adjustment of full dialogue without thinking about last offenses.
For the last month Islamabad and New Delhi undertook a number of steps for establishment of full dialogue. At the end of November of this year Mody held a meeting with Nawaz Sharif in Paris on fields of conference of the UN on climate change which proceeded only three minutes. But, according to the Hindu newspaper, these three minutes became decisive to start dialogue as leaders agreed to begin dialogue without preliminary conditions. After it at the beginning of December the Minister of Foreign Affairs Sushma Svaradzh visited in Islamabad conference on Afghanistan "Heart of Asia" where managed to talk over with the Pakistan colleague Sartadzhem Aziz. Its result began to renew the solution of two countries dialogue at the level of foreign policy departments which was interrupted earlier. Negotiations of advisers on national security of India which took place in Bangkok this month became a sign event also.
Earlier leaders of India and Pakistan held full-fledged negotiations in Ufa, on fields of the summits of BRICS and SCO. However the agreements reached there on adjustment of dialogue could not be realized because of an aggravation of the Kashmir question and as a result of failure of the planned negotiations of advisers for national security in New Delhi in August of this year.
