"Yes" Clinton said, when Delahunt asked, "Secretary
Clinton, if you have time, have we consulted with the Indians
in terms of their relationship with Pakistan in reducing the
concern that the Pakistanis have relative to India?"
Meanwhile in an interview to MSNBC, Senator Allen
Specter, argued the US should work to reduce the tension
between India and Pakistan.
"I would like to have seen him (Obama) say and do that
we're going to work hard to relieve the tension between India
and Pakistan. Pakistan has a lot of troops on the border.
India is not going to attack Pakistan. But if that situation
could be defused, then Pakistan could help a lot with the
Taliban," Specter said.
"I do not want to see the United States men and women
over there fighting the Taliban. And al Qaeda can organize
someplace else. I'd like to see him get more out of Pakistan
and not try to intervene in what is essentially a civil war
between the Taliban and the Karzai government in Pakistan," he
said. PTI
