Pakistan rules out India’s role in Afghan peace process

Islamabad: Pakistan has ruled out any role for India in the Afghan peace process, the media reported on Friday. “India has no role in Afghanistan,” Foreign Office spokesman Mohammad Faisal said at the weekly media briefing on Thursday while responding to a query about Islamabad’s position on New Delhi’s part in the reconciliation process. Faisal acknowledged that Pakistan has a difficult relationship with India, saying that despite Pakistan’s efforts for normalization, no concrete progress could be achieved in ties with India, Dawn news reported. “You all know that India is not willing to engage with Pakistan,” he reminded. Faisal’s remarks were in sharp contrast to what Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi had told the National Assembly last month. (IANS)
