Zakaria's statement comes a day after Pakistan's HC to India, Abdul Basit, said the peace process between Islamabad and New Delhi is temporarily suspended.
Pakistan Foreign Ministry spokesperson Nafees Zakaria has said that his country is ready to work with India to prevent an arms race in the region and added that the peace dialogue between the two nations will continue.
Zakaria's statement comes a day after Pakistan's High Commissioner to India, Abdul Basit, said the peace process between Islamabad and New Delhi is temporarily suspended, reports Dawn.
Nafees was responding to a query relating to President Obama's comments at the Nuclear Security Summit last week, in which he had asked India and Pakistan to work towards reducing their nuclear arsenal and develop military doctrines.
Basit had on Thursday also gone into denial mode on the reciprocal visit by National Investigation Agency to Pakistan for the Pathankot attack probe.
The spokesman noted that there was an increased understanding at the international level of Pakistan's concerns over India's expanding conventional and nuclear capabilities and their offensive force postures and military doctrines such as the 'Cold Start Doctrine.'
The spokesman said that the limited resources of Pakistan and India should be channelled towards meeting the social needs of our people.
Zakaria added that India's request for consular access to the captured spy, Kulbushan Jhadav, was under consideration and the decision would be taken as per the provisions of the 2008 accord on consular access.
The Indian Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) had on Thursday rebuffed Pakistan High Commissioner Abdul Basit's remark that the peace process between both the countries has been 'suspended' and there are no talks scheduled between the two countries.
