ISLAMABAD:
A delegation of High Peace Council of Afghanistan, led by its Chairman Salahuddin Rabbani will visit Islamabad from November 12 to 14.
Foreign Office spokesperson said on Sunday that Foreign Minister Hina Rabbani Khar invited Rabbani to hold talks with the relevant authorities with regard to the peace and reconciliation process in Afghanistan.
During his visit, Rabbani will call on President Asif Ali Zardari and Prime Minister Raja Pervaiz Ashraf, hold formal talks with Khar and meet the military leadership of the country.
Earlier, Rabbani had twice put off his scheduled trip to Pakistan in August owing to tensions over cross-border raids and Islamabad’s reluctance to release key Taliban leaders.
This will be the top Afghan interlocutor’s first trip to Pakistan since he was appointed head of the council following the killing of his father and predecessor Burhanuddin Rabbani in September last year.
