EU hails govt’s decision
BRUSSELS: The European Union hailed the government’s decision as well, calling it a ‘positive’ step forward. EU Commissioner for External Relations Benita-Ferrero Waldner said she thought “it is a good step forward and hopefully now both President Zardari and (opposition leader) Nawaz Sharif and the political opposition can work together to confront the ... difficult situation in many parts of Pakistan.” She told reporters that the EU thought it “is very important that there is political stability in the country because we have an enemy and the enemy is extremism and fund-amentalism”. online
