Pakistan on Thursday indicated that terrorism was not a part of the agreed agenda for the Foreign Secretary-level engagement with India that is expected to take place this month and the focus would be on Jammu & Kashmir, peace and security, and promotion of friendly exchanges.
This was the categorical response of Foreign Office spokesperson Tehmina Janjua to a specific question on whether the fresh evidence provided by India on the Mumbai 2008 terror attacks would be discussed at the Foreign Secretary talks. In response, she flagged the agreed outcome of the Indo-Pak Foreign Secretary-level talks in Thimphu on February 6 on the basis of which the dialogue process was resumed.
Asked if Pakistan was open to discussing the fresh evidence being cited by India, Ms. Janjua’s response was that matters relating to terrorism had been discussed at the Home/Interior Secretary-level engagement and whatever New Delhi provides as fresh evidence or new information is sent to the Interior Ministry where it is examined on the basis of ground realities.
What is there to talk, they need to act!
