Pakistan said today that it was in touch with India over all bilateral issues, including the probe into the Pathankot terror attack, and underlined that dialogue is the only way to resolve the outstanding matters.
"I do not have information about the conclusion of the investigation. However, both sides remain in contact with each other on all matters related to bilateral issues. If there is any update, I will share it with you," Foreign Office (FO) spokesman Nafees Zakaria said.
He was responding to a question about the sharing of details of Pathankot attack with India during his weekly press briefing.
"As to the Foreign Secretary-level talks, both sides understand that dialogue is the only way to resolve the outstanding issues between the two countries. Both sides are in contact to finalise the dates for the Foreign Secretary- level talks," he said in response to another question.
Zakaria said there was a realisation on both sides that dialogue must take place.
He said that Pakistan has consistently supported all regional and international efforts to combat terrorism and extremism and that is why it welcomed Saudi-led coalition against terrorism.
