Krishna likely to visit Pakistan next month

The talks between the ministers will be preceded by a meeting between the Foreign Secretaries of the two countries, official sources said here.

Krishna is likely to travel to Islamabad around July 17- 18 for talks with Khar, sources said. Khar had come here last year for the talks.

Indo-Pak dialogue, which had stalled following the Mumbai terror attack in November 2008, resumed last year with both sides holding a series of meetings on the eight components under the 'Composite Dialogue' format, including terrorism, Siachen, Sir Creek, Trade and Kashmir.

The two countries have already had four segments including terrorism, trade and water in the past few months with two more -on Siachen and Sir Creek- slated for this month as part of the second round of talks.

Asked about the issues to be discussed, the sources said both sides will discuss all issues of mutual concerns.
