India Negotiation in Pakistan is better in the interest of Pakistan. Should Pakistan let go of past grievances and ally with India or does India still pose a threat to Pakistan's peace? The stated issue is a major issue ever since Pakistan separated from India and is yet to be resolved by both the countries. On one side are those Pakistanis who think that negotiation is in the interest of both countries. They think it would help both countries regarding peace and development.
