| Pak refuses transit to Indian goods | | | Agencies
Islamabad, Dec 20 Pakistan did not agree to allow Indian goods to transit through its territory into Afghanistan during the latest round of talks on a new Afghan-Pak transit trade agreement.
The issue of allowing Indian goods to transit through Pakistani territory into Afghanistan could only be discussed in the composite dialogue with New Delhi, an unnamed Pakistani official was quoted as saying by the Dawn newspaper.
An Afghan official said the issue was a "minor irritant" and would not derail the talks between Kabul and Islamabad.
India put the composite dialogue on hold in the wake of last year's Mumbai terror attacks and there is little likelihood of the process being resumed in the near future.
New Delhi has linked the resumption of the talks to Islamabad taking action against the perpetrators of the worst terror attack on India's financial hub last year.
