No fruitful talks possible till removal of concerns: India  

Posted by M. Rashid

NEW DELHI: Pakistan’s real test that it is acting against India-specific terror will come when it acts “decisively” against Lashkar-e-Taiba chief Hafiz Saeed, Indian Foreign Minister S M Krishna said. In an interview to a newspaper, Krishna indicated that foreign secretaries’ talks would be “futile” if Pakistan did not create a “favourable” atmosphere”. “Unless they address our concerns on terror and as the PM put it, create a favourable atmosphere for talks, talks will be futile. For any talks you have to build a favourable atmosphere, trust needs to be built up. In its absence, regardless of how many times the PMs or foreign ministers meet or foreign secretaries meet, it will have no impact. Pakistan should address our terror concerns, move decisively against those people named by India, and then tackle them accordingly. This will be the first indication to the government of India that they are moving decisively to tackle terror,” the minister said. “We want Pakistan to bring the same kind of seriousness that they are employing against the Taliban in Swat to the terrorists against India,” he added.LINK
