Gilani looks forward to upcoming Indo-Pak talks

July 15, 2011 16:43

Premier Yousuf Raza Gilani today expressed satisfaction at the resolve of India and Pakistan to continue their bilateral talks and not be deterred by
terrorists' "designs to derail the dialogue once again."

Gilani made the remarks during a meeting with visiting Sri Lankan Foreign Minister G L Peiris at the Prime Minister's House. Pakistan has strongly condemned the recent terrorist attack in Mumbai, he said.

The Premier's comments came a day after External Affairs Minister S M Krishna said India would go ahead with Foreign Minister-level talks with Pakistan as scheduled at the end of this month despite the triple blasts in Mumbai that killed 17
people on Wednesday.
