Imran Khan Writes to Modi to Restart Talks

Pakistani Prime Minister, Imran Khan writes a letter to Indian Prime Minister, Modi, to restart talks between the two nations.

He called for dialogue on all issues.

Leaders of India and Pakistan are likely to come face to face in June, at the  Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit in Kyrgyzstan.
