US describes India as a responsible N-state

[Solomon2]

WASHINGTON: The White House urged all nuclear states on Thursday to exercise restraint but said it would be wrong to compare India’s missile tests with those of North Korea because the former was a responsible state.

What a @%#$#% statement! - but relative to N.K. there is some truth to it.

 

[karan.1970]

what being a proxy is called being diplomacy. You guys now redefining English words. Like you done with secular

For people who do not understand the concept of Diplomacy, it would certainly seem like redefining English

 

[navtrek]

Sure by flattering India, US can divert all attention toward China...U.S certainly not the only one who know how to make such statement.

I remember on one SCO session, all members were agree to invite Iran as pariticipant with observer status...than U.S was criticizing Iran participation by label it as sponsor terrorists....then Chinese foreign minister has shut U.S mouth by saying:

"Iran is responsible nation, if we consider it as terrorist sponsor...we wouldn't invite it"

all it on how you play with your words...China don't want to too much anger U.S with this kind of wording game...doesn't mean that we don't know how to formulate a "favorite political statement"

lol you have no idea most of us in India are with Iran. We even support Iran going nuclear they are our friends.

WASHINGTON: The White House urged all nuclear states on Thursday to exercise restraint but said it would be wrong to compare India’s missile tests with those of North Korea because the former was a responsible state.

India tested the 5,000-km-range Agni-V missile on Thursday morning, joining a select group of countries — Russia, the US, Britain, China and France — that possess intercontinental ballistic missiles. The missile can reach Beijing and Shanghai in China, and all of Pakistan.

A Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson, Liu Weimin, downplayed the tests, saying: “China and India are both big emerging countries, we are not rivals but cooperation partners.”

But the Chinese media pointed out that the test violated the nuclear restraint regime and pointed out that Western powers did not condemn the test.

Asked to comment on the Chinese media reports, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said: “We urge all nuclear-capable states to exercise restraint regarding nuclear and missile capabilities, and continue to discourage actions that might destabilize the South Asia region.”

The White House official, however, disagreed with those who were comparing India with North Korea.“I would simply point out, because comparisons have been made to the DPRK and its actions, that India’s record stands in stark contrast to that of North Korea, which has been subject to numerous sanctions by the UN Security Council,” he said.

Carney, however, said he did not know if the Indian missile test would also come up for discussion at the forthcoming US-India strategic dialogue. “Our reaction to this missile test is what I just provided to you,” he added.

At the State Department, deputy spokesman Mark Toner also urged “all nuclear-capable states to exercise restraint regarding their nuclear and missile capabilities”.

Asked if the US would admonish India over the test, Toner noted that Israel and India had “very much engaged” in the international community on non-proliferation issues. They had attended both the nuclear security summits and “so we believe that they have a solid nonproliferation record and they’re playing a significant role internationally on the issue”.

Pakistan has hundreds of million less hungry than India. Anyway how does it feel to be ruled by a white woman

"WHITE WOMAN"

Arent you being racist??

Sonia Gandhi was wife of a late indian prime minister. Though white she belongs to India & by no way she is anti-indian or against india's interest.

She doesnt hold any position in indian governement her political party came in power due to public votes & not like your Mister 10% aka Zardari who killed his wife & got his seat u all know the truth but hypocratically elected him.

tell me how it feels to be ruled by pro-US & anti-pakistani government??? do u enjoy getting slapped by their personal likes of pleasing US??

 

[Hafizzz]

rather amusing coming from a pakistani

It is AMUSING isn't it given the fact the Indians often claim that their country is a Superpower and now with the firing of Agni 5 , India still cannot say NO to her former colonial Master.

How is it racist to describe a white woman as a "white woman" ?
Do Black people complain when you describe them as a "Black person" ???

The Answer is NO.

Sonia Gandhi is a white Italian and there is nothing wrong with describing her as a white woman.

Its not because of any proxies.

We have the leverage of dictating our destinies.

We hardly sing their tunes.

Our songs are based on own national interests.

Its kinda difficult to understand.

Tommorow if Russia says the same, ( no need to say as nuclear collaboration with them are decade long) would you say India is Russian proxy??

I know, never. Everybody in pk wants to see India a US proxy and go through what u guys went during and after the glory days.


But sadly we know every moves and play by the rules of the book. Dissappointed? Better be.

Gosh,that was a masterpiece!

 

[Hellfire]

We even support Iran going nuclear they are our friends.

Really? Since when?

We do NOT support Iran going nuclear interms of weaponisation. Period.
And to assume we are their friends is somehow foolhardy. The only reason we are friendly with them is due to the convergence of interests in Afghanistan and a steadfast commonality in fighting the spread of Wahabism.
