Manmohan Singh a ‘nice man’ for Pakistan: Musharraf

Islamabad: Pakistan’s former military ruler Pervez Musharraf, who had several meetings with Indian leaders during his nine-years at the helm, feels Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is a “nice man” for his country.
Musharraf, who met Singh a number of times, including during his visit to New Delhi in 2005, said he liked the Indian Prime Minister.
“He (Singh) is a nice man for Pakistan,” said Musharraf, who has been living outside the country since early 2009, during an interview with Dawn News channel in Dubai.
Musharraf quit as President in 2008 to avoid being impeached by the Pakistan People’s Party-led government.
After a failed bilateral summit in Agra in 2001, Musharraf returned to India in 2005 when his meeting with Singh resulted in a joint statement that described the peace process between the two countries as “irreversible”.
