Pakistan-India talks must continue: US
ISLAMABAD: The United States on Saturday said that continuation of India-Pakistan peace talks was in the best interest of the regional stability. US Secretary of State John Kerry telephoned Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and lauded his role in carefully tackling the prevailing situation in the wake of the recent gunmen attack on Indian airbase. Nawaz apprised Kerry that Pakistan is swiftly carrying out investigations into Pathankot incident and will soon unearth the truth. Kerry hoped that ‘talks between Pakistan and India would continue despite efforts to thwart the process’. “Pakistan would not allow anyone to use its soil to carry out terror operations abroad,” the premier maintained. Kerry extended full support to the prime minister in finding out the actual perpetrators behind the Pathankot incident. Earlier on Thursday, a US State Department spokesman had said it was up to the Pakistan government to determine how long it would take to investigate the attack on the Pathankot air base following information provided by India.
