Manmohan to meet Ahmadinejad in New York

By musiclover - Wed Sep 21, 9:18 pm

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has announced he will meet Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad during his visit to New York to address the United Nations General Assembly.

The meeting comes amid heightened violence in Afghanistan, illustrated in stark relief by the assassination of key peace negotiator Burhanuddin Rabbani on Tuesday. In recent months, Taliban insurgents have raised the tempo on international and Afghan forces, as well as attacks targeting Kabul — most spearheaded by the network of Pakistan-based warlord Jalaluddin Haqqani.
