US special envoy on Pakistan and Afghanistan Richard Holbrooke says US will urge India and Pakistan to resume their dialogue, adding that US would support them if they decided to resume the talks but Washington was not willing to play the role of a midwife.
Holbrooke during a briefing in Washington said that US would cooperate with Afghan government, adding that US civilian aid would help in Pakistan’s development.
Responding to a question about how the US could balance its ties with India and Pakistan when both were suspicious of each other, Holbrooke noted that ‘all Americans were delighted’ with Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s current visit to Washington. ‘But no one in Pakistan should see this as a diminution of the importance we attach to them,’ he said. He said that US would take positive steps to end poppy cultivation in Afghanistan.
