1. :

Pakistan foreign minister Hina Rabbani Khar has said Islamabad now trusts New

Delhi more than ever before and believes the Kashmir dispute cannot be a

roadblock. We will trust India more in whatever we do. We are clear on this,

Khar told Hindustan Times. She said although the Kashmir issue needs to be

resolved, it need not be the point of start. Our intention is to solve the (Kashmir)

problem. But let us start with the less complicated problems. We will deal with our

differences in a different mode, Khar said. On Prime Minister Manmohan

Singhs much-anticipated but yet undecided trip to Pakistan, she said: This only

states the clear direction of our foreign policy that we will not let go any desire

from India unattended.

India and Pakistan have a legacy of three wars since independence. Khar said the

time had come to not get bogged down by the old mindset.
