Pakistan not a terrorist-assisting state

United States said Friday that nothing was discussed to declare Pakistan “A terrorist-assisting country”.

Responding to a question, Sean McCormack, spokesman of U.S. States Department, said during a press briefing in Washington, though Pakistan-based terrorist outfit Jamaat-ud-Dawa was allegedly involved in the Mumbai carnage, nothing discussed as to consider Pakistan, a terrorist-assisting country.

He extended U.S. pleasure on Pakistan government’s decision to outlaw terrorist outfit however, he said, the war on terror across the world needs to be monitored closely.

Responding to another question he said U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice would meet Britain’s Foreign Secretary in United Nations next week and expected that the tension between Pakistan and India would likely come under discussion.
