    These talks have resumed in a very positive atmosphere. I'm confident that we will get House's support for this new initiative

    When people couldn't find anything else, they decided to raise the issue about colour of my sareee, the laguage I spoke during Pakistan visit.

    The level of discussion on terrorism has been raised, will be discussed through NSA level talks from now

    Just because NSA talks happened in Bangkok doesn't make Thailand a third party, therefore wrong to suggest that 

    NSA level talks were held on 6th December before my visit to Pakistan on 9th December. 

    If flip-flop is described as resumption & cancelation of talks over&over again, then this is not right description because resumption and cancellation of talks is a part of diplomacy, shouldn't be described as Flip-Flop.

    Nothing has changed on ground. We used to say talks and terror can't go hand in hand. In Ufa it was decided, lets address terror first.
