Islamabad: Pakistan is ready to engage in a “conditional” dialogue with India, Pakistani Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi has said.

Qureshi said that Pakistan always wanted to solve existing issues with India through dialogue and if any country will mediate then Pakistan will welcome that too.

“Pakistan is ready for the dialogue but it will only work if India is equally interested,” he said, according to a Pakistani media report.

However, Qureshi made it clear that for bilateral talks certain conditions have to be fulfilled.

He said India must lift the curfew and release the Hurriyat leadership under detention in Jammu and Kashmir afer the revocation of Article 370.
