This link is to a very recent article about India/Pakistani talks on terrorism. It would appear however that both sides have entrenched themselves quite fiercely and have not been able to concede or reach across the isle, even on some overlapping issues. India blames Pakistan for quietly abetting terrorist attacks geared against India, and doing little to prosecute/investigate the Mumbai attacks. On the other hand Pakistan blames India for supporting Afghani militants pouring into Pakistan, and threatening to disrupt and destabilize Pakistan.
It is sad to see these types of talks reach the same inconclusive results. It slows down any potential progress that can be made between the two states and solidifies negative preconceptions which each state has against the other.
