Article Abstract:

Under severe international pressure, India and Pakistan have agreed to hold talks aimed at reducing tension in the region, widely thought of by many as one of the most volatile places in the world. Comprehensive dialogue between the neighbors will mean discussing Kashmir, where according to the Pakistani viewpoint India should make territorial concessions that no Indian Government would agree to, just as no Pakistan Government would agree to convert the Line of Control to an international border.
