Army chief General Ashfaq Pervez Kayani has told a visiting European delegation that "Pakistan wants a stable Afghanistan but not at the cost of Pakistan," suggesting that Islamabad wants to remain relevant in any peace initiative and is unlikely to accept a solution that would undermine its strategic interests.
This revelation was made by German Minister for Economic Cooperation and Development Dirk Niebel, who is currently visiting Pakistan alongside his European Union counterpart.
"We have to find a solution (to this problem) and Pakistan's cooperation with German and the EUcan be come the basis for the stability of the region," said Neibel.
Neibel did not clarify what sort of endgame German or the EU had in mind for Afhanistan, where several European nations, inculding German, have thousands of ttoops stationed.
