Islamabad, Oct. 29 (ANI): Pakistan has welcomed Indian Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh’s willingness to resume bilateral dialogue on all pending issues.
The Dawn quoted Pakistan’s Foreign Office spokesman Abdul Basit, as saying that the Dr. Singh’s statement is a welcome reiteration of the understanding reached at the Sharm-El Sheikh summit between Pakistan and India.
Basit said Pakistan welcomes India’s readiness to discuss all outstanding issues, especially on the Jammu and Kashmir dispute.
He added that the two neighbours couldn’t allow terrorists to define and drive the agenda on issues of peace, security and stability in South Asia.
The composite dialogue process offers hopes for a meaningful engagement to address these issues, he said.
The composite dialogue between Indian and Pakistan has stalled since last year’s Mumbai terror attacks, which were masterminded and carried out by Pakistan based terrorists. (ANI)
