US-INDIA 2

The US Ambassador said this message has been resolutely
communicated to Pakistan by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton
and National Security Adviser James Jones during their visits
to Pakistan recently.

Roemer was replying when pointed out that the trial in
the 26/11 case continues to be delayed in Pakistan even as the
first anniversary of the attacks is approaching.
He said Pakistan needs to see the danger posed to itself
from groups like Lashkar-e-Taiba, which has "evolved from
regional threat to global terror group," and "concentrate" on
dismantling terror infrastructure.
Crackdown by Pakistan on terror groups on its soil will
have an effect on action in Afghanistan, he said, while
pointing out that situation in these countries would figure in
the talks between Singh and Obama.
He evaded a direct reply to a question on India's
concerns with regard to diversion by Pakistan of American
funds meant for fighting terrorism but said the US would soon
announce a new policy on Afghanistan that will be a
combination of defence, diplomacy and developmental issues.
Roemer said the US and India would work together to
protect their citizens from terrorism. This will entail
exchange in information and technologies. (MORE) PTI AKK
