“As of this moment, I am not aware of any proposal on this (Modi-Sharif meeting),” Pakistan High Commissioner to India Abdul Basit said here at a function.
While Prime Minister Modi will be in New York from 26th to 29th September, Sharif is scheduled to be there from 22nd to 27th September. Though there is an overlapping of small period when both the leaders will be there, a meeting is unlikely given the frosty ties between the two countries.
The two countries witnessed a war of words last month as India cancelled Foreign Secretary-level meeting after Pakistan went ahead with talks with the Kashmiri separatists despite India asking it to choose a “dialogue with India or talks with separatists”.(PTI)
