US stresses on India-Pakistan to resolve issues

WASHINGTON:

Fourth time in a row US State Department has commented on the India-Pak tensions to be resolved, urging them both to improve their relations.

Pakistan’s ambassador to Washington Jalil Abbas Jilani welcomed this gesture, saying that the United States was playing “a positive role” for reducing tensions between the two South Asian neighbours, reportedly.

At the State Department, spokesperson John Kirby said the United States desired “that relations between the two countries continue to improve over a range of issues”.

On Tuesday, US Secretary of State John Kerry also stressed the need for reducing tensions between the two neighbours.

And earlier this week, another State Department official, Jeff Rathke, urged India and Pakistan “to take steps to reduce tensions and to move towards resuming talks.”
