Pakistan and Afghanistan will push for the revival of peace talks with Taliban rebels that were suspended this month after initial contact for the first time in more than a decade, dpa cited officials in Islamabad as saying. "Our priority of course is reconciliation," Pakistan's National Security Adviser Sartaj Aziz said as an Afghan delegation arrived in Islamabad to discuss the process. Scores of people were killed in recent Taliban attacks after the group's new leader, Mullah Akhtar Mansour, took over following the confirmation of his predecessor Mullah Omar's death. It was the first-ever face-to-face contact between the two sides since the Taliban regime was driven out of power in 2001.
