Pakistan Taliban considers peace talks: report | Reuters: "Pakistani leaders said after an all-party meeting attended by top military and intelligence officials last month they would seek reconciliation with militants to end an insurgency.
And Prime Minister Yusuf Raza Gilani was quoted by newspapers as saying the government was ready to talk peace.
"Our shura (council) will decide whether and when can we enter into talks with the government, with the military," the Express Tribune quoted Maulvi Wali-ur-Rehman Mehsud, deputy leader of the Pakistani Taliban, as saying.
"But I think we would like to involve countries we trust ... they are in the Arab world. Let's say Saudi Arabia."
Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan, or Taliban Movement of Pakistan (TTP), which is close to al Qaeda, was formed in December 2007 as an alliance of Pakistani militant groups to attack the Pakistani state.
It has been blamed for many of the suicide bombings across Pakistan.
Several army offensives against the group's strongholds on the Afghan border have failed to weaken its campaign. Thousands of Pakistani soldiers, policemen and civilians have been killed in the conflict."
