ISLAMABAD (Web Desk) – The foreign secretaries of Pakistan and India are expected to meet in next month.
Pakistan Foreign Secretary Aizaz Ahmed Chaudhry and his Indian counterpart S Jaishankar were to meet in January but a terrorist attack on the Pathankot airbase led to the cancellation of the key talks.
Senior officials from both sides have been in touch with each other for rescheduling the meeting.
After a series of high-level contacts starting with an ice-breaking meeting in Paris between Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and his Indian counterpart Narendra Modi and climaxing with the latter’s surprise trip to Lahore, Pakistan and India had agreed to resume the bilateral dialogue after a hiatus of two years because of tensions along the Line of Control and Working Boundary.
