Talking to journalists ahead of the Pakistan-US strategic dialogue in Washington March 24, Qureshi asserted that there was no clarity in India over effective engagement with Pakistan.

"Pakistan is a responsible country and we have no need for any certificate," he said.

Replying to a question, Qureshi accused India of what he called "Indian war enthusiasm", and asserted that Pakistan did not want to start an arms race in the subcontinent.
