The foreign secretaries of Pakistan and India will meet next
month in Delhi to work out the details of the newly-announced comprehensive
bilateral dialogue after the two countries decided to re-engage.
Pakistan Prime Minister’s Advisor on Foreign Affairs Sartaj
Aziz, while making a statement in Parliament, said the secretaries will decide
on the modalities and schedule. Sources said the meeting will take place in
Delhi.
Mr. Aziz briefed Parliament about the recently held ‘Heart ofAsia’ conference and his meeting with External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj
during which it was decided that the two countries would engage in a
comprehensive bilateral dialogue. Mr. Aziz said all issues, including Kashmir, would
be part of the peace talks under the agreed formula for the fresh re-engagement
with India. “It was decided that the two foreign secretaries will work out the
