WASHINGTON: Prime Minister Imran Khan has said that Pakistan is ready to give up its nuclear arsenals if India does the same.

The premier expressed these views during an intervew Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan said Pakistan would be willing to give up its nuclear weapons if India was able to keep the same promise, during an interview on “Special Report with Bret Baier” Monday.

“If India said we would give up our nuclear weapons, would Pakistan?” Baier asked.

“Yes,” Khan answered. “Because nuclear war is not an option. And between Pakistan and India, the idea of nuclear war is actually self-destruction, because we have two and a half thousand-mile border.”

“Also I think there’s a realization in the subcontinent and there was some incident that happened last February and we again had tension at the border.
