Pakistan says will stay away from tobacco conference in India
Pakistan will not attend a global tobacco-control conference in India next week, a government minister said on Friday, in the latest fallout of strained diplomatic ties between the nuclear-armed neighbors. "It's a very important meeting on tobacco, but our visit doesn't appear feasible due to on-going tensions," Saira Afzal Tarar, Pakistan's State Minister of Health Sciences Regulation and Coordination, told Reuters.
