India, China should resolve border disputes through bilateral talks: Roemer |
US Ambassador to India, Timothy Roemer, on Wednesday said that tension between
India and China over border dispute is an internal issue of both the countries
and emphasized that it should be resolved by the two neighbours through bilateral
talks. Roemer said this while addressing the media at the American Centre in Kolkata
during her maiden visit to West Bengal. Reacting to the exchange of conflicting
statements between the two countiesin recent months, Roemer said: "The issue between
China and India is a bilateral issue. And it's one that United States is confident
will be resolved peacefully. Roemer also discussed about Pakistan's inaction against
those responsible for the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks and reiterated United States'
stance to punish the perpetrators. "It's very important that Pakistan successfully
prosecute the seven Mumbai attack suspects. They should continue to take the facts
and the evidence on Hafiz Saeed and prosecute him. And that we continue to see
is progress in dismantling the infrastructure of Lashkar-e-Taiba," Roemer said.
Earlier on Monday, a Pakistani court had quashed two cases against Saeed, whom
India accuses of masterminding last year's Mumbai terror attacks, but he remains
under virtual house-arrest. |
