"Terrorism is an issue. Everybody knows our views. Prime

effectively. Because if we want the dialogue process to
continue, we also need to make the effort to build a proper
atmosphere," Menon said as he left for Pakistan.

was looking forward to his new assignment. "It is quite after
some time that we are restoring our relations to this level,"
