Pakistan on Monday described outgoing United States envoy to India, Robert Blackwill, as a 'spokesman of the Indian external affairs ministry'.
Foreign Office spokesman Aziz Ahmad Khan said Kashmiris would be delighted to see the back of Blackwill, who recently announced that he would go back to teaching at the Harvard University.
He also said Pakistan would not receive any delegation of Indian members of Parliament if it included the former chief minister of Jammu and Kashmir, Farooq Abdullah.
Abdullah had recently met Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee and expressed a desire to lead a delegation of Indian MPs to Pakistan on a peace mission.
"... It was during the tenure of Farooq Abdullah that maximum atrocities were committed against the Kashmiri people," he said.
"He has blood of Kashmiri people on his hands and he should first apologise to Kashmiri people and apologise to the [All Parties] Hurriyat Conference.
"If they forgive him, perhaps a delegation led by APHC leaders, in which others can be included, would be welcomed to Pakistan."
