Hillary Clinton urged India to back Pakistan in terror fight
Friday, July 17, 2009 at 10:34 pm
U.S. secretary of state Hillary Clinton urged India on Friday to join Washington in supporting Pakistan’s fight against terrorism, but Delhi demanded results before it begins formal peace talks with its rival. Clinton is due to arrive in Mumbai late on Friday to start a five-day visit designed to cement ties and dispel any doubts about U.S. President Barack Obama’s commitment to India’s role as a rising global power. Although her trip has a wide agenda, including securing a deal to ensure U.S. arms technology does not leak to third countries, Clinton is expected to push for a smoothing of Indo-Pakistani ties frayed by last year’s Mumbai attacks.
