Making sure Pak not using military aid against India: US
Washington, June 9 (PTI) Addressing one of India's major concerns, Obama Administration's point man for South Asia has said that US is taking appropriate steps to ensure that the military aid given to Pakistan is not used against India.
The issue was discussed during last week's Strategic Dialogue between India and the US; which was co-chaired by External Affairs Minister S M Krishna and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
"I think they (India) understand that we are trying to build up Pakistan's counter-insurgency capabilities and we are seeking end use assurances to insure that the weapons that are provided will not be used against India," Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asia, Robert Blake said in response to a question at a State Department Blog Forum.
