He is saying this after 11 years. Perhaps he should answer the question why such a corrupt leader was not held accountable when he took power with the promises of cleaning up the acts.

For a third party to play a role in a bilateral dispute, the two parties must agree on the kind of role the third party must play. Obama has offered to play a role not in settling the dispute but in helping to reduce the tensions. Obviously, US cannot do anything if both India and Pakistan...

A sensible post, makes a very valuable point. The info on the intelligence sharing regarding attack on Musharraf is new for me.

If only it were so easy. The Moguls are part of the history of the land which is now Pakistan and India. But so are people like Abdullah Bhatti who stood up against them. A few posts aren't gonna change this fact or how history will be written.

Well, he did mention Kashmir at the joint presser with Mr Mnamohan Singh. I personally feel Obama, in a way, said something for everyone. The fact that he did talk about Kashmir, terming it a long outstanding dispute, saying Pakistan and India should resolve it can be taken by the...

Because 'You can change friends but not neighbours'.

Yes, i believe he did and it's an important statement which is recognized by Mr Manmohan. It was a very lengthy session and i have only posted his answer to one question.

I heard Mr Obama's talk with the students at St Xavier's college. I personally think he took a very balanced approach on the issue of extremism in Pakistan and also regarding Pak-India ties. I'm not sure how news channels or print media are going to report it but there will be a slant, of...
