Monday, December 14, 2015 – A momentary encounter between the Prime Ministers of India and Pakistan on the sidelines of the World Climate Conference in Paris and the unscheduled meeting of the security advisers of the two countries in Bangkok seems to have ultimately broken the ice. Sushma Swaraj, India’s External Affairs Minister landed in Pakistan’s capital Islamabad on December 8 to attend the ‘Heart of Asia Conference’ that kicked off here on December 9, 2015. Much to the pleasure and surprise of people on both sides of the divide, she announced resumption of the stalled composite bilateral dialogue between India and Pakistan. Minister Sushma Swaraj made this announcement at a joint press briefing held after signing of a joint communiqué between India and Pakistan.
