'Pakistan would never compromise with militants'
2008-07-23
Pakistan is committed to fighting terrorism, which is clearly in its own interest and the government would never compromise with militants, Prime Minister (PM) Yousuf Raza Gilani said on Tuesday.

He was talking to US Ambassador to Pakistan Anne W Patterson who visited Prime Minister's House ahead of Gilani's United States tour. "The upcoming visit to the US is very important and it will help enhance the existing close ties between the two countries," he said.

Expand relations: The PM said that Pakistan accords high priority to its strategic relationship with the US and is keen to further expand its relations in various fields. "Pakistan is also eager to enhance co-operation in the fields of education, health, energy, science and technology," he said.

He said that his government would not talk to militants, but would keep the doors of dialogue open for those who have laid down arms.
