 The West must play its role in promoting sustainable development in order to eliminate poverty, deprivation and the other causes of terrorism, said President Musharraf on Friday. He was talking to a Norwegian parliamentary delegation led by Tharbjorn Jagland, chairman of the standing committee on foreign relations of the Norwegian Parliament, which had called on him.
| Why don't you try throwing all the holy men in jug, freeing your society, and alleviating your own damned poverty. |
The president underlined the importance of eliminating the root causes of terrorism and explained his concept of 'Enlightened Moderation'. President Musharraf said he was satisfied with the bilateral relations between Pakistan and Norway and stressed the need to strengthen trade and economic ties and welcomed the increasing cooperation between the countries in telecommunications. The Norwegian team praised Musharraf's role in the war against terrorism and were confident that ties between the two countries would improve. |
