Pakistani president ties relations with Israel to progress in peace process

Pakistani president, Pervez Musharraf, said here on Friday his country will not establish diplomatic ties with Israel until fair peace is established in the Middle East and until justice is done to Palestinians.

In a press conference, the Pakistani president who paid an official visit to Morocco, said establishing relations with Israel is a very sensitive issue and needs national consensus, adding that his country is watching the ongoing peace process and the US-sponsored dialogue between Israelis and Palestinians.
