Backdoor diplomacy with India ongoing, may bear fruit: Mian Mansha

巴基斯坦商界领袖：巴基斯坦与印度的“后门外交”正在进行，可能会有结果

LAHORE: Pakistan’s leading businessman Mian Muhammad Mansha claims that backchannels are working between Pakistan and India that will hopefully yield good results.

拉合尔：巴基斯坦商界领袖米安·穆罕默德·曼沙声称，巴基斯坦和印度之间的“秘密渠道”在运作，有望产生好的结果。

“If things improve between the two neighbours, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi could visit Pakistan in a month,” the chairman of Nishat Group told a gathering of businessmen at the Lahore Chambers of Commerce and Industry on Wednesday.

周三，Nishat集团董事长在拉合尔工商会对一群商人表示：“如果两国关系改善，印度总理纳伦德拉·莫迪可能在一个月内访问巴基斯坦。”

He advised the two countries to resolve their disputes and start trade to fight poverty in the region.

他建议两国解决争端，并开始贸易，以消除该地区的贫困。

“If the economy does not improve, the country may face disastrous consequences. Pakistan should improve trade relations with India and take a regional approach to economic development. Europe fought two great wars, but ultimately settled for peace and regional development. There is no permanent enmity.”

“如果经济不改善，国家可能面临灾难性的后果。巴基斯坦应该改善与印度的贸易关系，并采取区域经济发展方式。欧洲经历了两场大战，但最终实现了和平发展。我们之间没有永久的敌意。”

Trade relations between Pak­istan and India have been suspended since August 2019 when New Delhi revoked the law providing special status or autonomy to occupied Kashmir. There have been reports of backchannel talks last summer between the two economies of the region brokered by a Gulf state. However, the government said the talks were discontinued due to Indian repression of the people of held Kashmir, as well as its refusal to recall its troops from the valley and restore its special status.

自2019年8月新德里撤销了为印控克什米尔提供特殊地位或自治的法律以来，巴基斯坦和印度之间的贸易关系已经暂停。有报道称，去年夏天，在一个海湾国家的斡旋下，该地区的两个经济体进行了私下谈判。然而，政府表示，由于印度对印控克什米尔人民的镇压，以及印度拒绝从该山谷召回军队并恢复其特殊地位，谈判已经中断。

On the domestic front, Mian Mansha said “progressive, market-oriented policies” were the key to success. Through price control to capital market operations, reducing trade barriers and minimising state influence on the economy, especially through privatisation and austerity, Pakistan can truly achieve rapid growth.

在国内方面，米安·曼沙说“进步的、以市场为导向的政策”是成功的关键。通过对资本市场运作的价格控制、减少贸易壁垒和将国家对经济的影响降至最低，特别是通过私有化和紧缩政策，巴基斯坦可以真正实现快速增长。

What has changed now  ?

然而，政府表示，由于印度对印控克什米尔人民的镇压，以及印度拒绝从该山谷召回军队并恢复其特殊地位，谈判已经中断。现在发生了什么变化?

We should work towards uniting South Asia like the EU. It has been more than 70 years now, yet we keep letting the Redcliffe line define our countries and defining who we are.

Pakistan must listen and follow up on such practical business voices. Rightly said Europeans have shown how co operation with adversaries benefits. And frankly speaking it the issue of survival or bankruptcy. Follow Bangladesh.

巴基斯坦必须倾听这些务实的商人的声音。欧洲人恰如其分地展示了与对手合作如何带来好处。坦白地说，这是生存还是破产的问题。学学孟加拉国。

Pakistan should allow Indian businessmen to invest in Pakistan, build infra, etc. Unlike the Chinese investments, these will boost local jobs and the economy. Apart from building people:people contact, will quadruple trust and burn down walls of hatred.

巴基斯坦应该允许印度商人在巴基斯坦投资、建设基础设施等。与中国的投资不同，这些项目将促进当地就业和经济。除了建立人与人之间的联系之外，还能加强信任，摧毁仇恨之墙。
