“Talks with Pakistan will resume soon”
Sandeep Dikshit
NEW DELHI: Foreign Secretaries of India and Pakistan will meet after the new Government is installed in Islamabad in January, External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee told newspersons here on Friday after meeting his counterpart Inam-ul-Haq on the sidelines of the SAARC Council of Ministers meeting.
“Both of us expressed the hope that the dialogue, including composite dialogue, would take place after the new Government assumes power. The Foreign Secretaries will meet to wrap up the fourth round of the composite dialogue and we will also launch the fifth round. Other mechanisms established between the two countries will also be put in operation. We could not carry on our normal work due to the circumstances prevailing in Pakistan,” Mr. Mukherjee said.
He said bilateral trade had expanded and confidence building measures in several sectors mapped out. The joint survey of one of the disputed territories, Sir Creek, was successfully carried out and discussions would resume as soon as possible. “We will have to wait till the new government comes in position in Pakistan.”
