Terrorism must be eliminated, says Qureshi
 Pakistan itself is a victim of terrorism and considers it a menace to humanity that must be eliminated, Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi said on Sunday. Talking to his Turkish counterpart Ali Babacan, who telephoned him to discuss bilateral relations and share views on the regional and global situation, Qureshi said that Pakistan was one of the first countries to strongly condemn the Mumbai terrorist attacks and offer India all possible assistance. He briefed Babacan about Pakistan's relations with India after the attacks and said that Pakistan shared the grief of India and the families who had lost their loved ones in the incident. The Turkish foreign minister lauded Pakistan's role in the fight against extremism and expressed support for the efforts being made by Islamabad to engage New Delhi constructively.Posted by: Fred 2008-12-01 |
