Afghanistan's Ulema Council has shown mixed reaction to their Pakistani counterparts' refusal to attend a joint summit, with some Afghan clergy blaming Pakistani's Ulema Council for supporting the Afghan Taliban.

Pakistan's council of religious clerics announced Tuesday that they wouldn't be attending a planned ulema summit between the two countries to build support against suicide bombings and facilitate the Afghan peace process.

The government will consult with a broad cross-section of the country through a jirga to decided whether to ratify the security pact with Washington, the second vice president said Wednesday.

Vice President Khalili added that the jirga is expected to take place sometime in June this year.
