Pakistan, while warning India that terrorists are looking for a chance to hamper the peace process between India and Pakistan, mentioned that these extremists should not be allowed for dictating the terms of the India-Pak dialogue.
Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi mentioned that Pakistan is committed towards eliminating terrorism from its soil as well as from all the other nations. He also mentioned that India should help Pakistan in its fight against terrorism.
The India – Pakistan peace process has been stalled since the Mumbai 26/11 attacks which happened last Novemeber.
"We continue to strongly believe that the terrorists are out there to sabotage the peace process between Pakistan and India... Our two countries should not be driven and dictated by them," Qureshi told Malaysian news agency Bernama in an interview.
Qureshi, who is Malaysia for the Group of Eight Developing Islamic Countries (D-8) meeting, said terrorism was a common challenge requiring a joint response.
"As you know, Pakistan is fighting terrorism in its own interest. At the same time, we fully understand that in order to deal with terrorism and militancy, regional cooperation is a sine qua non," he said.
