The MEA in a statement said, "We have not received any such suggestion from the Chinese government. We consider it as his personal opinion. Matters related to India-Pak relations are bilateral in nature and have no scope for any third county's involvement," news agency ANI reported.
The Congress, too, condemned the Chinese envoy's statement. Congress leader Manish Tiwari said, “We hope the government of India will also condemn his statement. Our stand has been that issues between India and Pakistan be solved bilaterally.”
