00:00D.O.K is part of India and we expect one day that we will have the physical jurisdiction
00:14over it.
00:39First of all, 370 is not a bilateral issue, 370 is an internal issue.
00:45Now with regard to Pakistan, the issue is not 370, the issue is Pakistan's terrorism.
00:51So again, we, you know, there is no change really and, you know, how can there be?
00:57I mean, we must sort of make the world realize and we do that, I mean, when I go abroad I
01:07always ask other people saying, show me anywhere else in the world where any country conducts
01:13terrorism openly against its neighbor as part of what it considers its foreign policy.
01:20So until the terrorism issue, you know, what should come on the table first of all is the
01:27terrorism issue.
01:28Because that is the root cause of the state of the relationship.
01:33So I think there has to be a recognition of that.
01:38On P.O.K, yes, our position on P.O.K is, has always been and will always be very clear.
01:46P.O.K is part of India and we expect one day that we will have the jurisdiction, physical
01:58jurisdiction over it.
