Minister David Cameron’s hostile remarks against Pakistan. Zardari will now be
going on a three-day visit to France , starting from August 1. Foreign Office
spokesman Abdul Basit however said that the programme of the President’s visit
to the UK is being finalized, and denied that the visit has been cancelled. He
said that the dates would be announced at an appropriate time, The Daily Times

said: “I think it’s important, as I say, to speak frankly about these things to
countries that are your friends.” When asked whether he regretted damaging relations
with Pakistan ahead of Zardari’s visit, he said: “I don’t accept that they have
been damaged... I look forward to discussing these and other issues (with Zardari).” |
