Meeting with Jaishankar not ‘finalised or requested’: Pakistan FM Shah Mahmood Qureshi

The Hindu  

Pakistan Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi has said no meeting has been “finalised or requested” so far with his Indian counterpart S. Jaishankar on the sidelines of the ‘Heart of Asia’ conference on Tuesday at Tajikistan’s capital Dushanbe, according to a media report on Monday. Mr. Qureshi on Sunday told the Dawn newspaper that “no meeting has been finalised or requested.” When asked about media speculation that India and Pakistan have been quietly negotiating for the full resumption of diplomatic relations, Mr. Qureshi said, “No such decision yet.” Mr. Jaishankar last week also did not give a specific reply to questions on whether he will meet Mr. Qureshi on the sidelines of the conference. The last meeting between Mr. Qureshi and an Indian External Affairs Minister took place in May 2019 in Bishkek on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation meeting. Pakistan’s Foreign Office on Sunday said Mr. Qureshi would hold “consultations with key regional and international partners” on the sidelines of the conference.
