		FOREIGN MINISTER STRAW: Let me just endorse what the Secretary has said and say this: I know of nobody in Iraq, as well as outside, who cares about Iraq's future stability; who believes that that stability would be best-served by an abrupt withdrawal of the multinational forces which are there.
		FOREIGN MINISTER GRAHAM: When this was discussed between the Prime Minister and the President two weeks ago when the Prime Minister was there, we made it clear that we're fully engaged in Afghanistan, Haiti and other theaters on the sides of our allies.

	DAWN - Opinion; 10 September, 2004
		In the meantime foreign secretary Riaz Khokhar, who had earlier had a meeting with his Indian counterpart, left for home immediately after the second day of talks and in any case was not scheduled to stay on until the end of his minister's visit to New Delhi.
		However, it was evident from the statements of the two foreign ministers at their joint press conference that the two-day meeting could not achieve much that could be called substantial and that the two did not find it possible to signify an unqualified agreement on any of the items of their agenda.
		Thus, the foreign ministers' decision to continue with the ceasefire on the Line of Control (LoC), despite their differing perceptions of the Kashmir issue is encouraging.

		Of course, the cabinet and the overall council of ministers which total 66 is not the handiwork of Shaukat Aziz.
		He wants the ministers of state to prepare a brief and focused agenda for achievements of targets for 100 days, which would be discussed in the cabinet meetings.

		But I didn't put it at the top of the list because we're very encouraged by the recent signs of deescalating tensions, but we are also conscious of the need to keep pressure on both parties to ensure discussions to make sure that no new problems arise.
		I know that from our foreign minister's perspective, he's anxious to see this conference go forward and go forward sooner than later, but we'll have to see whether or not a consensus among the others on this.
