MULTAN: Foreign Minister Hina Rabbani Khar has stated that Pakistan could help the Afghan government in talks with the Taliban.
Khar said on Monday that stability in the regions was in the interest of Pakistan.
“The situation in the region cannot improve without improving relations with neighbours.”
The Foreign Minister when asked about NATO supplies said that their aerial passage had never been blocked. Khar once again pointed out that the decision to reopen the supply route would be made by Parliament.
“I had informed US Secretary of State Hilary Clinton that the NATO supply route issue would be decided by Parliament,” Khar said.
Relations between the US and Pakistan have been troubled following the NATO attack on a Pakistani check post and may deteriorate further over Islamabad’s pipeline project with Tehran.
Khar has already emphasised that project would be completed irrespective of external pressure and on Monday said that work on it was continuing
