Taliban peace talks Pakistan's "own decision," says Nisar
2013-09-11
[Dawn] Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan said on Tuesday that the framework for holding dialogue with Taliban is ready and there was no foreign pressure in this regard.

Addressing a presser, he said it was the unanimous decision of politicians and military leadership to hold talks with the Taliban in the best national interest.

"It is our own decision. The draft for the talks is ready, however, I cannot share its details. We will keep you updating and share information as the talks progress," he added.

The minister said it was the government's prime responsibility to pull the country out of the crisis by carefully analyzing the situation and pursuing a pragmatic strategy.
