INDIA has asked Pakistan that its posture of "compulsive hostility" will not help a "serious and sustained" dialogue between the two countries. In an interview to PTI, Indian Foreign Minister SM Krishna said: "Our only expectation from Pakistan is to dismantle terror infrastructure. A serious and sustained dialogue can thrive only in a peaceful climate." On the visit of his Pakistani counterpart Shah Mehmood Qureshi to India, Krishna said he had great expectations from his visit. "I look forward to his (Qureshis) visit", but refused to comment whether it will be this month as indicated earlier. He also noted that India was willing to discuss all issues with Pakistan through a bilateral dialogue. In a year-end review of the foreign policy and challenges before India in 2011, he touched upon India's relations with immediate neighbours, country's growing economic ties with ASEAN and Korea, and the support India has received for its bid for permanent membership of the UN Security Council. "Our candidature for permanent membership of UNSC also received greater traction and support of the international community this year," Krishna said. Despite differences on a host of issues with China, including Beijing issuing staple visas to residents of Jammu and Kashmir, Krishna said the two countries have a "better understanding of each other's positions and concerns." "We also have the confidence, resolve and mechanisms to address our differences peacefully and in a mature manner," he said. In regard to China, the issue of staple visas to residents of Jammu and Kashmir remained a matter of concern for New Delhi which saw it as impingement on the country's "sovereignty and territorial integrity". "We are committed to cordial and cooperative ties with our neighbours based on the principles of equality, non-interference and mutual respect," Krishna said. Talking about the year ahead, Krishna said as the largest democracy and one of the fastest growing major economies in the world, India is willing to play its due role in 21st century global diplomatic, financial and governance structures. "We will continue our endeavour to steadily transform the nature of our strategic partnerships with key nations, both to our West and to our East," the minister said.
