ISLAMABAD: As a precursor to the US-Pakistan strategic dialogue, Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi on Thursday put forward three proposals to achieve the goal of a long term, sustainable and broad based US-Pakistan dialogue.
Qureshi called for an annual meeting between the US Secretary of State and the Foreign Minister of Pakistan, a bi-annual meeting between US special envoy Richard Holbrooke and Pakistans Foreign Secretary and ten tracks for US-Pakistan engagement.
He added that past engagements between the two countries were based simply on short term goals.
Qureshi said there were a number of differences between Pakistan and the United States and that while Pakistan had already done too much it was now time for the US to do more as well.
He stressed the need for financial assistance for development, poverty alleviation and prosperity in the country. DawnNews
