Pakistan-Spokesman
Pakistan on Monday said that it is not satisfied with pace of ongoing dialogue process with India.
Foreign Office Spokesman, Jalil Abbas Jilani Jilani at a weekly press briefing told media men that he expected substantial progress on the issue of Kashmir, Sir Creek, Siachin and water, but said he did not see much progress.
However he said the atmosphere is certainly better than the past for talks between the two countries and hoped that progress would be made on important issues in the coming days.
Replying to questions the spokesman said the visit of the Prime Minister to the United States and Canada has been postponed and would be rescheduled in consultations with those countries.
He said the visit has been postponed because of flood situation, local government polls and the train accident at Ghotki.
About Kishan Ganga project, he said as per understanding the final talks were to be held on 11 to 14 of this month but India has now proposed 4 to 8 of August for the purpose.
However, Pakistan has suggested 30 of July to 1st of August as Pakistani negotiating team would be already in India on 29 of this month in connection with the inspection of Baglihar project prior to joint inspection by the neutral expert, the spokesman said.
