Is Pakistan trying to gang up with India to resist Americans in Afghanistan? ‘India has never been a threat to Pakistan’ says Zardari
Pakistan is trying to find friends as Americans are closing in the western front. It is possible that Pakistan will ask India to influence its pressure on the Americans to stop cross border infiltration in search of Al-Queda leadership and Taliban commandos.
India’s response for now is clearly ‘no’. It will be interesting to see what happens when BJP comes to power.
According to media reports, Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari has admitted that India is not a threat to his country and described the militants operating in Jammu and Kashmir as terrorists, a statement made perhaps for the first time by a top Pakistani leader.
"India has never been a threat to Pakistan. I, for one, and our democratic government is not scared of Indian influence abroad," Zardari told ''Wall Street Journal'' in an interview.
He spoke of the militant groups operating in Kashmir as "terrorists," the paper said, noting that former President Pervez Musharraf would more likely have called them "freedom fighters."
Replying to a question, Zardari said he had no objection to the India-US nuclear cooperation pact so long as Pakistan is treated "at par."
