Islamabad, Feb 18: Pakistan today said that that the growing
ties between India and Israel, specially in the military field
were causing it 'concern' but added that the issue was not raised
during the three-day talks, which ended today.
Pakistani Foreign Secretary Riaz Khokhar said that Pakistan was
aware of the growing relationship between the two countries,
specially in defence matters, and would like to allay its concerns.
''We will find an appropriate forum and stage to discuss this
issue with whosoever we consider relevant and is causing this
concern to us,'' he said, in response to a question whether
Pakistan would talk to America or India and Israel on this issue.
However, he said these issue was not discussed in the meeting
between three-day talks between Indian and Pakistani diplomats,
which ended in Islamabad today, but hinted it could be raised later.
