BERLIN, June 4: Pakistan envoy Farooq Ahmed Leghari will give German Foreign Minister Joschka Fischer a letter on Tuesday outlining President Pervez Musharraf’s solution to the Kashmir dispute with India, a Pakistan embassy spokesman said.

The spokesman said former Pakistan president Leghari, one of five emissaries sent abroad by Musharraf to explain his country’s position on disputed Kashmir, would give Fischer the letter during a meeting in Berlin.

Leghari, who arrived in the capital on Sunday, also plans to continue his meetings with German parliamentarians before flying out later in the day for Moscow.

India and Pakistan, which are both nuclear powers, have been on the brink of a new war in recent weeks and have deployed around one million soldiers on their border.—AFP
