This is especially disturbing in view of a rather constructive meeting with Admiral Mullen in Spain, he added.

On the specific question of contacts with the Haqqani group, the army chief said that Admiral Mullen knows fully well which countries are in contact with the Haqqanis. Singling out Pakistan is neither fair nor productive.

Categorically denying the accusations of a proxy war and Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) support to Haqqanis, General Kayani wished that the blame game should give way to a constructive and meaningful engagement for a stable and peaceful Afghanistan, an objective to which Pakistan is fully committed.
