Former Pakistani premier Nawaz Sharif told AFP Monday that President Pervez Musharraf contacted him three times recently, but he said he would not meet the military ruler when he comes to Saudi Arabia.
Sharif spoke from exile in Jeddah a day before Musharraf was due to visit Saudi Arabia for talks with King Abdullah on his first foreign trip since declaring a state of emergency in Pakistan on Nov. 3.
"Thrice he tried to contact me...in the past two months, saying that he wants to come here in Jeddah. I regretted it, I said no, it will not serve any purpose," Sharif told AFP by telephone.
