As Prime Minister Manmohan Singh heads for a four-day visit to Seoul, South Korea, on Saturday morning, a meeting with his Pakistani counterpart, Mr Yousaf Raza Gilani, on the sidelines of the nuclear security summit appears to be almost a certainty now.
The Pakistani side is hopeful that the meeting between the two PMs will come about while maintaining that progress has been made in the peace process. India, on its part, has stated time and again that it is committed to resolving all outstanding issues with its neighbour through dialogue.
