ISLAMABAD: Pakistan will put pressure on India in international fora to remain engaged for a settlement on the Kashmir issue, Foreign Minister Khurshid M. Kasuri has said.

The Minister reportedly said this to a parliamentary committee on Kashmir.

Pakistan would tell every international forum that it was ready to continue the peace talks under the composite dialogue process but India had not reciprocated, Mr. Kasuri told the committee according to the Daily Times.

Briefing the committee, he said that despite the recent postponement of talks between the two foreign secretaries, he hoped the process of composite dialogue would resume soon.
