Those are making objections today were present in briefing: SM Qureshi
In an interview Shah Mehmood Qureshi said Pakistani Taliban has to return back, decision made to mean stream them. Conditions were set to mean stream Taliban.

They were said to accept Paksitan’s constitution, he continues, they will bring no arm from Afghanistan. They will live in peace here. They had to be rehabilitated.

Shah Mehmood Qureshi told that issued was briefed during in-camera session of national assembly. Bilawal Bhutto, Army Chief, DG ISI all were there. All those are objectioning were present in briefing.

He said it was decided after briefing that we have to go ahead and make roadmap. Then our government ended. Which government took over they are responsible.

PTI leader said during our tenure terrorist incidents went down gradually. Terrorism incident increased in one year how we are responsible?

Qureshi continued when people started coming in Sawat have we not pointed out? Murad Saeed and other our people have not mobilised people from their? have Rana Sana ullah not stated that no people are coming from outside there?

Further he maintained that now they are pushing responsibility backward, how one political party could make decision solely. While accepting realities we have to go farward.

Terrorism is a curse, he said, and we have to counter it. National Action plan was made. That should be executed.

Shah Mehmood Qureshi said we never refused to talk but government will take initiative. If they want to held dialogue tell us what will be the agenda? Asif Zardari said dialogue should be unconditional, it is welcoming. First need to remove country from whirlpool is new election.

Asif Zardari said objection is not on election but on time.
He said election time is not in your control. Two assemblies has been dissolved. it is stated in constitution to held polls within 90 days.

Timing could not be set by Asif Zardari, Shehbaz are me. Dialogue could be held about elections of Sindh, Balochistan, and National Assebly. we can agree to time of all elections at same time.

Further Shah Mehmood Qureshi said we have to set parameters for talks. One side they talk about dialogue and on the other side they are taking retaliatory actions. Ali Zaidi and secretary general KP Ali Amin Gandapur are arrested. I am facing appearances in courts daily, new cases are being made on Imran Khan. They have no intentions of dialogue. They say one thing and do another. They are violating constitution. They are trying to divide Supreme Court. They are condemning the court. They are pushing country toward anarchy.
