Pakistan, Turkey urge 'peaceful' solution to Iran crisis
2006-04-21
Pakistan and Turkey on Thursday called on western powers and Iran to find a diplomatic solution to the row over Tehran's alleged nuclear programme, saying they did not want fresh conflict in their already troubled region. "Pakistan is against the use of force . . . Diplomacy must be given a chance," visiting Pakistani Foreign Minister Khurshid Kasuri told reporters after talks with his Turkish counterpart, Abdullah Gul.

He said that Pakistan had already paid "a big price" due to the US-led war in neighbouring Afghanistan and did not want similar instability on its borders with Iran. "We must try to find a way out and have an inspection regime which Iran has indicated it will accept, whereby the concerns of the international community can be met and we have a peaceful and diplomatic resolution to this dispute." Gul also stressed that "everybody should do whatever they can to resolve this affair through diplomatic means".
