US, India forging global partnership: Burns Arun Kumar (IANS) Washington, November 29, 2006 The United States and India are forging a "natural global partnership" economically, militarily and culturally in one of the most significant shifts in US global policy in a decade, says a senior US official. While the US-India civil nuclear accord has received the most public attention, there is actually an "ambitious agenda" of cooperative efforts under way through official government channels, private businesses and non-profit organisations, said Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs R Nicholas Burns. In a speech to the Asia Society in New York...

Message from the Mumbai blasts: Don't get close to the US July 12, 2006 If ever there was a demonstration that cross-border terrorism remains a pertinent threat to freedom-loving people everywhere, it happened on 7/11 in Mumbai, the financial capital of India. A series of bomb blasts on the most crowded suburban rail system in the world has killed at least 174 people and wounded scores more. As we recently observed the one-year memorial of the 7/7 blasts in London, these attacks should not be seen as separate from them or from the wedding bombings in Jordan in 2005, or...

New Lashkar module maybe behind blasts July 12, 2006 12:42 IST The Mumbai police suspect that a new module of the Lashkar-e-Tayiba that may have penetrated Mumbai recently, could be responsible for yesterday's serial bomb blasts that killed over 190 people and left over 600 injured.

Two to three LeT operatives from the module, who are absconding, do not seem to be involved in yesterday's blasts, they said....

Let me begin by affirming that India’s vote on the IAEA resolution does not, in any way, detract from the traditionally close and friendly relations we are privileged to enjoy with Iran. Indeed, India-Iran ties, as we have...

India-U.S. deal disturbing, says Musharraf B. Muralidhar Reddy It will upset the balance of power ISLAMABAD: Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf has said the civilian nuclear cooperation pact between the United States and India will upset the `balance of power' in the region.

Pak opposition, media slam Bush visit March 05, 2006 18:31 IST Disappointed that no major concessions were announced during US President George W Bush's visit to Pakistan, opposition parties have said it did not bring any tangible gains on Kashmir, nuclear energy and defence while the media slammed it as a "dull affair" with Washington "tilting" in favour of India.

'Bush snatched bread from our mouth' March 05, 2006 As United States President George W Bush leaves Pakistan on Saturday night, one glaring fact will stand apart from the rest. He will be the fifth American president to visit Pakistan and on all five occasions, a democratic government was not in place. Dwight Eisenhower was the first US president to visit Pakistan in December 1959. Lyndon B Johnson visited Pakistan twice (December 1967 and December 1968). Both came when General Ayub Khan was in power. * Complete Coverage Richard Nixon visited Pakistan in August 1969 when the country was under...

Bush, Manmohan create history, seal nuclear deal Associated Press New Delhi, March 2, 2006 US President George W Bush and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Thursday announced their countries had reached agreement on a landmark nuclear deal. "We concluded an historic agreement today on nuclear power," Bush said during a joint press conference. Under the accord, the United States would share American nuclear know-how and fuel with India to help power its fast-growing economy, even though India won't sign the international non-proliferation treaty. It would represent a major shift in policy for the United States, which imposed temporary sanctions on...

Howdy, pardner March 1, 2006 India should welcome George W. Bush. The world's largest economic, military and cultural power, the United States, has the ability to do a great deal of harm, as well as a great deal of good to us. In the past 60 years, it has done both. America's ties with Pakistan undermined Indian security as nothing else could have. The US-sponsored jehad against the Soviet occupiers in Afghanistan left a detritus of arms and explosives, not to mention jehadis, in our region. But US aid has also left a legacy of the Green Revolution that helped...

Manmohan offered to quit over CPM protest to Indo-US exercise January 07, 2006 Prime Minister Manmohan Singh had offered to resign last November when West Bengal Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharya refused to provide his government's support to the India-United States joint military exercise in West Bengal.

Dr Singh also gave the West Bengal CM the example of Kerala where Indo-China joint military exercises were conducted unhindered. According to a source in New Delhi, "The PM...
