India and Pakistan to restart peace talks

Pakistan and India have agreed to restart peace talks suspended since train bombings killed more than 200 people in Mumbai in July as part of a wave of attacks India blames on Pakistan-based militants.

Describing their meeting as a breakthrough for peace, Pakistani president Pervez Musharraf and Indian prime minister Manmohan Singh agreed on Cabinet-level talks by their foreign secretaries, and said Singh had accepted an invitation to travel to Pakistan to further the process.
