Pakistan's Prime Minister Imran Khan said that both Pakistan and India will need to show flexibility and not stick to unilateral positions in order to make progress on resolving the Kashmir issue. He noted that confidence building measures will not be possible without dialogue that addresses Kashmir. For the first time, important developments were indicated in the joint statement following his meeting with India's Prime Minister, which acknowledged Kashmir as a dispute needing resolution and supported having a composite dialogue that includes Jammu and Kashmir.
