Islamabad, April 20, SPA -- Pakistan and India are moving towards the settlement of the Kashmir issue that might not be the first choice for all the three parties, including the Kashmiris, according to Pakistan's Foreign Minister Khurshid M Kasuri. "The two countries are moving towards a settlement of the Kashmir issue that might not be the first best choice for all the three parties (India, Pakistan and Kasmiris) but it could be the second best," he was was quoted as saying by Pakistan daily "The Nation" Friday. "Lot of ground has been covered for an agreement on Kashmir and some areas of differences are being sorted out," he said, adding that certain steps are needed to create a conducive environment so that the two governments could sell the "package to the people of Pakistan, India and Kashmir". He, however, expressed his inability to give the exact details owing to sensitivity of the matter. The Kashmir package, once finalised, would be presented before the Pakistani parliament for approval. However, if it was not approved by the parliament it would not be acceptable to Pakistan, he was quoted as saying in the report carried today by Press Trust of India (PTI).--MORE www.spa.gov.sa/442649
