Kasuri meets Mottaki

Published February 1, 2006

LONDON, Jan 31: Foreign ministers of Pakistan and Iran met at the sidelines of the London Conference to discuss what a spokesman of Pakistan High Commission desribed as “matters of mutual interest.”

Foreign Minister Khurshid Mehmood Kasuri and his Iranian counterpart, Manouchehr Mottaki, were earlier scheduled to meet at the Pakistan High Commission in the evening, but a press statement issued by the High Commission said the meeting had been “called off.”

When contacted, spokesperson of the High Commission, Mr Imran Gardezi, said: “The meeting has already taken place at the Lancaster House at the sidelines of the London Conference and hence the meeting at the High Commission had been called off.”
