Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi on Tuesday reaffirmed Pakistan's commitment to continue its efforts for maintaining peace and stability in Afghanistan.

The foreign minister was talking to an Afghan delegation, led by Chairman of Hizb-e-Wahdat-e-Islami Muhammad Karim Khalili in Islamabad and expressed satisfaction over the progress in the intra-Afghan dialogue.

He said this is a unique opportunity for Afghan leadership which must be seized for peace in the region.

Muhammad Karim Khalili lauded Pakistan's role in the Afghan peace process.

Qureshi reiterated that India is acting as a spoiler in Afghanistan, adding that Pakistan has presented evidence to the international community in this regard.

Informing the delegation about Pakistan's new visa policy to facilitate the Afghans, Qureshi stated that Pakistan is taking concrete steps for the promotion of bilateral relations between the two countries.

He said Pakistan desires an early but dignified return of Afghan refugees to their homeland.

The Afghani envoy thanked Pakistani leadership and people for hosting Afghan refugees for many decades.
