Krishna to discuss diversion of US aid by Pak with Hillary: Sources | External Affairs Minister S.M. Krishna will be meeting Secretary of State Hillary Clinton
in New York on September 25 to apprise her about the Indian concerns over diversion
of US aid by Pakistan for strengthening its defence against India, according to
sources. Sources told ANI that the United States has already conveyed to India
through diplomatic channels its concerns about the diversion of aid. India has
been voicing its concern over the diversion of US aid. Recent admission by former
President Pervez Musharraf in an interview to news channel further vindicated
India's blame. Krishna will represent India at the UN General Assembly session
and reach New York on September 22 on a six-day visit. He is also likely to meet
his Pakistani counterpart Shah Mehmood Qureshi there amid a growing chill in ties
between the two neighbours. Foreign Secretary Nirupama Rao will also meet her
Pakistani counterpart Salman Bashir in New York to review Islamabad's action against
the perpetrators of the Mumbai terror attacks. Prime Minister Mannmohan Singh
will also be in the US around that time to attend the G20 summit of the world's
major and emerging economies. |
