Snubbed by India, Afghan; Pakistan pledges sincerity towards 'lasting peace'

Amritsar, Dec 4 (UNI) At the receiving end of unprecedented attack by India and Afghanistan for its alleged complicity in aiding and supporting to terror elements, Pakistan today said it has "unflinching commitment for lasting peace in Afghanistan and the region".
"It is simplistic to blame only one country (Pakistan) for the recent upsurge in violence. We need to have an objective and holistic view," Pakistan’s Foreign Affairs Adviser Sartaj Aziz said at the Heart of Asia conference, which was convened here strictly to evolve mechanism to combat terrorism and establish peace and prosperity in Afghanistan.
Mr Aziz also chose to avoid any reference to Jammu and Kashmir but sought to counter "baseless allegations" from Afghan President Ashraf Ghani, who earlier snubbed Pakistan and declined to accept its offer of 500-million-US dollars assistance.
