New Delhi : Keen on taking the bilateral dialogue process forward, Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi is expected to visit New Delhi at the end of this month.
He will meet his counterpart S M Krishna, which will be followed by a meeting of the Foreign Secretaries in Islamabad, ANI reported quoting diplomatic sources.
The Prime Ministers” of both countries met during the XVIth SAARC summit at Thimphu last week and asked their foreign ministers and foreign secretaries to work on modalities for restoring trust and to meet as soon as possible.
It is expected that the two foreign ministers may meet before the Indo-US strategic dialogue to be held in Washington on June 3.
Although the dates for Foreign Minister Qureshi’s visit to India are still being worked out, it is most likely to take place at the end of the month.
Islamabad is keen for a resumption of the suspended composite dialogue, whereas New Delhi says both countries should not get stuck in nomenclature and have an “all encompassing” dialogue on all issues of mutual concern.
India had suspended the Composite Dialogue process after the Mumbai attacks and linked its resumption to action against terror.
