ISLAMABAD: Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf on Tuesday expressed satisfaction with progress achieved by the India-Pakistan dialogue to resolve the Kashmir issue but said Islamabad will not accept New Delhi's "domination" in the region.
 
"The talks between India and Pakistan on Kashmir issue are under way, which is a welcoming development. The two countries exhibited in this regard a positive attitude in the Havana Declaration. Now the process should move forward," he said in an interview with a private TV channel.
 
"I respect the Indian prime minister but it is regrettable that India wants to keep its domination in the region and wants Pakistan to be weaker force. Indian should come out of its phobia of being a greater nation and should talk to us at an equal level", Musharraf claimed.
 
"We would not allow anyone's interference in our internal matters and neither would be tolerate such things," he said. Musharraf also urged the two countries to refrain from interfering into each other's internal affairs and said India should correct its own matters before pointing finger at Pakistan regarding terrorism at its own soil.
 
Apparently referring to Indian allegations of Pakistan fomenting terrorism in the country, he said India should first set its house in order before telling others what to do.
 
"There are 21 such places in India where violence continues. The situation in Assam is also visible. So, New Delhi should first correct its own matters and then talk to Pakistan", he said.
