On Board A Special Aircraft: India on Wednesday said
even "a few steps" by Pakistan in Mumbai terror attacks probe
will satisfy it and help in resumption of the composite
dialogue as well as carrying on with normal business between
the two countries.
On his way to Kuwait for two-day official visit, External
Affairs Minister S M Krishna said India will be "quite
satisfied" with "a few steps" by Pakistan in the course of
26/11 investigations.
This, he said, will "certainly make it easier for India
to carry on normal business with Pakistan".
"We are trying to focus their attention also on
terrorism. It would be extremely helpful for our bilateral
relationship and dialogue (if they take these measures)," he
told journalists accompanying him on the visit.
Krishna said Home Minister P Chidambaram will represent
India at the SAARC Home Ministers' meeting to be held in
Rawalpindi on February 26 and 27.
"Chidambaram will get a chance to have very useful
exchanges with his counterparts and other leaders in
Pakistan," he said.
Pakistan has been strongly advocating resumption of
Indo-Pak composite dialogue stalled after the Mumbai terror
attacks in November 2008 while India has been maintaining that
the atmosphere was not conducive enough to resume the
dialogue.
