| Iran has held serious talks with Afghan and Pakistani officials on promoting security and curbing banditry in the southeastern region of the country, Foreign Minister Manuchehr Mottaki said on Saturday. “During the recent visit of (Afghan President Hamid) Karzai to Iran, my recent trip to Afghanistan, and also (Iranian) vice-president’s visit to Pakistan serious talks were conducted on issues related to eastern country and the grounds have been prepared to combat such new conspiracies,” Mottaki told reporters on the sidelines of a seminar on Foreign Policy in Imam Khomeini’s View. He also expressed hope that Iran would be successful in exchanging information with the two neighboring countries and supervising regional developments. A shadowy militant group calling itself Jundallah has been behind a string of armed bloody incidents along Iran's borders with Afghanistan and Pakistan. The group is believed to be based across the border in southwestern Afghanistan. |
