Islamabad: Pakistan termed as "biased and unbalanced" the EU Parliament resolution which criticised the October 10 general elections in the country, but expressed satisfaction at the European Union's call to New Delhi and Islamabad to resume dialogue.

The head of the EU monitors delegation, John Cushnahan, persisted with "deeply flawed" conclusions about the recent elections, Pakistan Foreign Office said in a statement.

Cushnahan, heading an 80-member EU poll monitors mission, strongly criticised the poll process adopted by the Musharraf government to conduct the general elections. His report described the entire poll process as seriously flawed and partly agreed with the allegations of the Pakistan's political parties of pre-poll rigging.

"It is most unfortunate that Cushnahan persists with the deeply flawed conclusions in his report on the EU Election Observation Mission, which monitored the recently concluded general elections in Pakistan," the Foreign office statement said.

"Cushnahan continues to remain impervious to the restoration of Democracy in Pakistan," it said.

The EU Parliament's resolution in Brussels on November 21 has been overtaken by events in Pakistan, as the National Assembly has already met to elect the Speaker, Deputy Speaker and the leader of the House, it said.

The statement, however, expressed satisfaction over the European Parliament resolution calling for resumption of talks between India and Pakistan.
