India and Pakistan say they have agreed to resume peace talks "on all issues".

Both countries say that they are eager to talk

Peace moves were put on hold after Pakistan-based militants attacked Mumbai in 2008, although the sides have met a number of times in the past year.

The decision to discuss issues at the core of the nuclear-armed rivals' dispute came after top officials met at a summit in Bhutan at the weekend.

Pakistan's foreign minister will visit India by July to review progress in the dialogue, the two sides say.
