Pakistan urges strong US support for peace moves

Replying to a Post editorial urging Musharraf to ‘‘deliver on his promises’’, Qazi wrote ‘‘under Musharraf, more than 500 suspected Al Qaeda terrorists have been taken down, remnants of the Taliban are being squeezed and ‘conciliatory gestures to India,’ to quote the Post, have been made’’.

‘‘Pakistan is reaching out to India with an offer of dialogue and a peace process that includes a settlement for the Kashmir issue. What more does the Post expect?’’ Qazi asked.
