'Musharraf - Short of vision & long on venom'
Monday, February 24 103 19:57 Hrs (IST)

Kuala Lumpur: Known for drama, Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf on February 24 made a sudden unannounced appearance in the NAM (Non-Aligned Movement) Media Centre after raising the Kashmir issue at the plenary of the Summit.

There was jostling among journalists as he walked in with camera crews trying to take shots and reporters firing questions at him.

Replying to queries on the possibility of resumption of Indo-Pak dialogue, Musharraf said, "You cannot clap with one hand. My hand is there and I have said that many times and I am tired about this. If they (India) are not interested, I am least interested."

Musharraf said he raised the Kashmir issue as he considered it to be "important".

The Pakistani leader dropped by at the Media Centre at a time when Foreign Secretary Kanwal Sibal was giving India's response to Musharraf raking up the Kashmir issue at the Summit in violation of the NAM charter.

Charging Musharraf with suffering from "political schizophrenia", Sibal said the Pakistani leader had raked up the Kashmir issue "because of his compulsive anti-India stand. "He (Musharraf) is short of vision and long on venom."
