Afghanistan pulls out of Pakistan meets to protest attacks

Updated July 15, 2008 11:06:54

Afghanistan says it will boycott a series of upcoming meetings with Pakistan unless "bilateral trust" is restored.

The cabinet decision came after President Hamid Karzai directly accused Pakistan's intelligence agency, the ISI, of a role in a series of deadly attacks.

It says the attacks are all indicators of ISI's attempts to recapture and destroy Afghanistan.

Pakistan has denied involvement accusing Afghanistan of shelving its responsibilities to fight extremist violence.
