War of words over Kashmir
The foreign ministers of India and Pakistan prepared to resume talks today after harsh words over the weekend threatened to complicate the wide-ranging discussions that include their decades-old dispute over Kashmir.
The talks between Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Khursheed Kasuri and his Indian counterpart, Natwar Singh, adjourned in New Delhi yesterday with Islamabad denying it arms and trains a separatist insurgency in the region and accusing India of human rights abuses there.
