ISLAMABAD, Pakistan -- President Pervez Musharraf said on Sunday Pakistan would end a ban on Indian flights over its territory, the official news agency reported.

"As a gesture of goodwill, Pakistan will agree to the resumption of overflights with India in the talks being held in New Delhi next week," news agency APP quoted Musharraf as saying.

The announcement came a few days after the nuclear-armed rivals began a ceasefire along the military Line of Control (LOC), which divides disputed Kashmir between the two.

Speaking of general Musharraf, does anyone have any idea when he is going to step down and turn Pakistan back into a democracy again? Or is the world happy to let a dictator be as long as he pretends to support the so-called "war on terrorism"?

He says he will step down after hes completed 5 years of office, which is in 2004. But, like other dictartors like General Zia who ruled pakistan in the 80's and was assasinated by the CIA, i think general Musharaff will continue till his death.

Well I hope he continues for as long as possible because Pakistan has not had a decent leader for decades, that place is actually getting better.
