President did not equate Pashtuns with Taliban: FO
2006-09-15
ISLAMABAD: Pakistan on Thursday made it clear that in no way had President General Pervez Musharraf equated Pashtuns with Taliban. Responding to charges made by the Afghan Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Foreign Office spokesperson Tasnim Aslam said that President Musharraf's address to the European Parliament's Committee on Foreign Affairs related specifically to the recent peace deal signed by the government and militants in N Waziristan.
