NUCLEAR 3 LAST

Singh and Obama are also expected to discuss progress in
26/11 attacks case, amid India's disappointment that
Pakistan is not showing the required seriousness and urgency
in prosecuting the accused.

India remains concerned over persisting threat of terror
attacks emanating from Pakistan, which is expected to be
articulated by Singh.
The Prime Minister and the US President would also
exchange views on Afghanistan-Pakistan situation. Obama is
expected to outline what the US is doing about the Af-Pak
situation and Singh will give his ideas and suggestions.
The exchange of views between Singh and Obama on Af-Pak
would be significant considering that the US is expected to
announce a new Af-Pak policy next week. It would have to be
seen if Singh's views are factored in that policy.
India says it has a stake in the Af-Pak developments
and the Singh-Obama discussions on it ahead of the US'
announcement of new policy is seen as a recognition of India's
role in the region.
New Delhi, however, notes that it is not interested in
military involvement in Afghanistan and will limit itself to
training Afghan security personnel.
Defence cooperation will also figure in the Summit
talks in Washington. PTI AKK
