Kabul: British Foreign Secretary William Hague has said that Pakistan has a major role to play for Afghan peace.
Hague said London’s government recognised the sacrifices rendered by Pakistan in the fight against terrorism and extremism.
Speaking at a news briefing following his joint visit to Afghanistan and Pakistan with the UAE Foreign Minister, Hague said he was encouraged by his discussion with the Pakistani leadership on a range of issues common to both the countries.
Hague said in his discussion, the Pakistani leaders called for promoting reconciliation process in Afghanistan.
Answering another question, the British Foreign Secretary said that British military trainers have been withdrawn from Pakistan on security grounds. Their withdrawal, he said, would not affect the ties between the two countries which remained solid and cordial.
When asked about drone attacks in Pakistan, he said this issue needed to be resolved between Islamabad and Washington.
