ISLAMABAD, 19 April, 2021 (TON): In a three day visit to UAE, Pakistan Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi has ruled out backchannel talks with his Indian counterpart S. Jaishankar, who is also present in the Gulf country.

On Sunday, the Minister told the reporters in Dubai, "I am here for a bilateral visit and not an India-specific agenda. My agenda is UAE-Pakistan and not India-Pakistan."

"I don't think a meeting is set out with the Indian Foreign Minister. We want peace in the region and cordial ties with all our neighbors including India," he added.

However, the Minister welcomed the UAE's mediation in resolving Pakistan's issues with India.
