LAHORE: Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi has said that it is necessary to move on from British Prime Minister David Cameron's anti-Pakistan statement for the sake of long standing relations.

Talking to the media at Lahore Airport on Saturday, the foreign minister claimed that Britain has realised Pakistan's important role in the war on terror.

Qureshi also said that the meeting between President Asif Ali Zardari and British Prime Minister David Cameron will help to get rid of misunderstandings.

He said that Pakistan wants to resume composite dialogue with India and that the delay in the dialogue was only from the Indian side.

He urged India to stop delaying tactics, as Pakistan seeks meaningful dialogue with its South Asian neighbor.

Think therefore | 13 years ago | Reply What else can you do but move on... shame on our leaders and shame on us... The end is nigh...
Ammad | 13 years ago | Reply If British doesn't care about long standing relations then why should we, its from both sides always. Very soon they will realize the importance of relations with Pakistan considering the strategic importance of our country, we at least should have shown that we didn't like this, now what would they get from this, that whatever we say to them they are our slaves and we can embarrasse them any time and they would not even react. That's quite different from India, if someone blames them their response is always a tough one and representing displeasure, not like our slave rulers.
