6:06:30 PM India, Pak should engage with each other: US | |
Washington, Jan 11: The USA has stressed that India and Pakistan
should engage with each other more, instead of looking for a third party
to mediate. Washington said this while Islamabad sought a third-party
intervention in the ongoing border skirmish issue and India ruling out
any such possibility. State department spokesperson Victoria Nuland said both the Asian
neighbours were making good progress in recent times by working through
various difficult issues, including trade. She said if the two countries
could reach an agreement on the border issue as well, it would be the
best outcome. Washington was clearly trying to avoid Pakistan's bait to
get involved in the problem.  It can be mentioned here that the US and Pakistan are going through
perhaps the worst phase in bilateral relations. New Delhi, on the other
hand, is enjoying a good term with Washington owing to several reasons,
including geostrategic and economic. Nuland said if both the countries wanted support from the UN, there
would be no problem in backing such demand, but still it would be best
if they talk to each other and find out a settlement. Nuland said secretary of state Hillary Clinton, who recently joined
work following an ill heath, had instructed US Ambassadors in both
India and Pakistan to work closely with the respective national
governments. She, however, declined to go into the details of the
reported beheading of an Indian soldier by the Pakistani troops in
Kashmir earlier this week. Observers of international politics believe that Pakistan's latest
tussle with India is part of the strategy to divert attention from its
chaotic western regions and the weaknesses of a fragile central
administration. Officials in Washington are apprehensive about
Pakistan's potential role in aggravating US misery in Afghanistan and
also about a probable collapse of the nuclear Islamabad. Amid all the
talks, Washington has continued with its Drone attacks on Pakistani soil
to destroy the terror networks. According to former American intelligence analyst Bruce Riedel,
Washington's intelligence community's fresh estimates believe that
Pakistan is one of those states in the world that are most likely to
crumble by 2030. He also pointed out that three of the USA's five
most-wanted terrorists live in Pakistan. He also said how
Lashkar-e-Taiba head and the mastermind of 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks
Hafeez Saeed openly declares jihad against India, the US and Israel. | |
