India, Pakistan Plan More Talks

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — Pakistan and India have agreed to another round of talks this year on issues that include the dispute over Kashmir, officials said.

This week’s announcement was made less than two weeks after the leaders of the nuclear-armed South Asian rivals met in New York on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly session.

Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry said in a statement Thursday that it had proposed meeting in November or December. Other issues Pakistan hopes to cover include transportation links, territorial waters and confidence-building measures related to the nations’ arsenals.
