If that is resolved, I think, we will be able to deal with other issues," Khan said here.</p> <p style="margin: 8px 0px; padding: 0px; display: block; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="margin: 8px 0px; padding: 0px; display: block; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial; font-size: 13px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 20px; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px; line-height: normal; text-align: left;"><img width="300" vspace="0" hspace="0" height="250" border="0" src="http://static.indianexpress.com/m-images/2009-07-14/M_Id_94049_Imran_Khan.jpg" alt="Imran Khan" title="Imran Khan has said that Indo-Pak relations will remain troubled until Kashmir issue is resolved." style="border-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /></span></span></p> <p style="margin: 8px 0px; padding: 0px; display: block; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="margin: 8px 0px; padding: 0px; display: block; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; text-align: justify;">Asked to comment on Prime Minister Manmohan Singhs observation that Pakistan should shed terrorism and choose friendship with India, Khan said Islamabad also has complained to India about its "involvement" in Baluchistan and Swat. "I think, the two countries should sit and work out (a solution). Lets not exchange intelligence about what is going on, what we are interfering, in each others country through terrorism, but also address the root causes," he told newsmen at the Royal Commonwealth Society here last night.</p> <p style="margin: 8px 0px; padding: 0px; display: block; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial; font-size: 13px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 20px; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px;"> <p style="margin: 8px 0px; padding: 0px; display: block; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="margin: 8px 0px; padding: 0px; display: block; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; text-align: justify;">The Tehreek-e-Insaf chairman described as "madness" the ongoing military operation against Taliban and said it would only "help Al Qaeda" and "produce more militants".

Now they are asking them to go back. How are they going to rehabilitate these people". He said the Taliban were not terrorists but religious fundamentalists and the government should negotiate a deal. He said the real enemy was Al Qaeda who has the potential to hit western targets. "The current policy is pushing Taliban and Al Qaeda together," he said. The Pakistan army was being looked upon as "agents of US," he said, "If an effort is made to isolate Al Qaeda from the tribals, Al Qaeda could be targeted".</p> <p style="margin: 8px 0px; padding: 0px; display: block; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; text-align: justify;"> </p> </span></span></p> </span></span></p>
