India and Pakistan are set to review nuclear related confidence building measures (CBMs) at the Foreign Office and Foreign Secretary-level talks in Islamabad. And though both sides do not expect major results and disagree on the core issue at the talks – Kashmir or terrorism -- Government sources here reposed faith in a sustained dialogue process to narrow the trust deficit and build understanding for the eventual resolution of issues of discord between the two nations.
India wants the expectations from the Foreign Secretary talks to be "realistic’’ given the history and complexity of Indo-Pak ties. "Dialogue is a process. We should not expect a decision. We should go step by step," said the sources.
