The Indian government on Friday referring to a telephonic conversation between Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and US President-elect Donald Trump said it looked forward to Trump helping Pakistan "address the most outstanding of its outstanding issues", Times of India reported.
Indian Ministry of External Affairs Spokesperson Vikas Swarup said the Indian government was aware of reports of the phone call and said, "We look forward to the President-elect helping Pakistan address the most outstanding of its outstanding issues ─ terrorism."
During a telephonic conversation with Prime Minister Nawaz on Wednesday Trump said he is willing to play any role that Pakistan wants to find solutions to outstanding problems.
The text of the conversation released by government's Press Information Department (PID) shows that during the conversation Trump also praised Nawaz and expressed his desire to meet the prime minister soon.
The Trump transition team said that Prime Minister Nawaz and Trump had a "productive conversation" that lacked what they referred to as the "flowery language" present in the Pakistan version of the talk.
“President-elect Trump and Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif spoke… had a productive conversation about how the United States and Pakistan will have a strong working relationship in the future,” said the Trump transition team in a rare readout of his conversation with a foreign leader.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi stepped up a drive to isolate Pakistan diplomatically after the Uri army base attack in September in which 19 Indian soldiers were killed. Hours after the attack occurred, Indian Home Minister Rajnath Singh termed Pakistan a 'terrorist state' and accused Pakistan of involvement.
In October, the White House shut down a petition mostly signed by US citizens of Indian origin seeking to designate Pakistan a state sponsor of terrorism. Days after the news made headlines, the US assured Pakistan that it does not want to declare it a state sponsor of terrorism and desires to work with Islamabad “as cooperatively as we can” to eliminate terrorist safe havens from the South Asian region.
The election of Donald Trump as US president, however, has Pakistanis wary that he may accelerate what they see as a shift in American policy to favour India.
To many Pakistanis, Trump's anti-Muslim rhetoric ─ he once proposed banning Muslims entering the United States ─ and business ties to India are signs that his administration could shift further toward New Delhi.
Trump has yet to lay out a detailed policy for South Asia, although he recently offered to mediate between India and Pakistan regarding the Kashmir dispute.

Cool down India as per your claims Pakistan is isolated so there is nothing to comment. You have to be decent and presentable to gain anything on international fronts as most obvious at home may not be that much point of concern for International world. All the statements from Indian government may be very helping for them on domestic front but on international front either they are helping Pakistan or at least not creating any harm. Though I do not have much expectations from Trump or USA but reaction of India even on a phone call is little strange

My dear neighbor Pakistan was created due to very basic reason that we want to live a free life without any shadows of fears without any constraints what to eat and what to not in short we wanted to be master of our own lives without any dictation and that very fact is still valid. We as Pakistani want to have good relationship with India but on equal terms but for that you have to first accept Pakistan as country and then rectify your very flawed concept of creation of Pakistan then I am sure we can very clearly move forward. As far as more Muslims in India it is their choice and they may be happy but at least I can not imagine that life where you always need to see around even to support a player.

Please do not mind if I quote example of Kashmir when millions on Muslims are living amazing life as per your words with progressive India they are not happy and they are waving Pakistani flags and facing pallet guns and bullets. If you will be able to understand this very basic point then you will know why Pakistan was created and what Pakistan means for us. All of us across the border are suffering due to issue of Kashmir why not to sit and solve it why India is shying away to sit on table with Pakistan make some agreement good or bad but solve this issue accept Pakistan as reality and then see how much love we have.

I believe that destiny of India and Pakistan is coupled with the bond of land and people. I believe that neither Pakistan nor India can make progress without cutting their huge defense expenditures. I know that people are suffering on both sides of borders but I will just request you to use soft words and try to ask your government to go for rational rather than emotional approach. Nothing will be solved by them. Pakistanis are more human than any place else and they know what is meaning of PEACE, LIFE and HAPPINESS as we got it back in very hard way.

Tough leaders are needed to solve this problem, not the current leaders on both sides. Misery of Kashmiris really needs to end and than we both can live in peace. India indeed is magnificent place full of rich history and so is Pakistan. We both can progress so fast because we have brain, manpower, young generation and above all our beautiful historic culture. Sadly one problem of Kashmir is holding us back. Buss karo jhagarna yaar. Whether it's the Kashmiri Pundits or Kashmiris Pellet gun victims they are all our children.

Democratic President Obama's ill-advised policy harmed regional peace and stability by his India-centric policy, ignoring Pakistan and other countries.
President Obama in his 8 year presidency over looked India's state-sponsored terrorism using Afghanistan and Iran's territory? He ignored India's brutal torture and killings in Kashmir? He provided India massive weapons, destabilizing the region? He supported India's MSN bid, without demanding India "sign" Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty? Such duplicity and dishonesty will end under President Trump, who wants good relations with all regional countries for world peace.

Relationship is based on the best interest of the country.
Pakistan has been American closest ally since 1948 until recently due to the mutual interest, not out of love relationship.
Likewise, American post 911 interest in India is also based on American interest in the region.
But, American are realizing they cannot pit India against China like they had pitted Pakistan against Soviet Union in 1970's.
Americans strategist India has proved time and again they cannot handle a small country like Pakistan, let alone China.
Americans will never make that mistake in this region.
Americans are also interested in the CPEC to connect with the central Asia & China.
American investors have trillions of dollars at stake in investments with respect to China.
Americans will never take the risk of alienating China for India, because of the stakes, and no history to support that India is capable of handing China, if push comes to shove.
