US President Barack Obama urged Pakistan to disarmed terrorist outfits and their safe havens in the country.
Speaking to Indian news paper “India Today” prior his India visit, Obama condemned the Peshawar terrorist attack said “Like people around the world, Americans were horrified at the senseless slaughter of so many students and teachers at the school in Peshawar, which was a painful reminder that terrorists threaten us all.”
He further added that although Washington and Islamabad are working in concert for the eradication of terrorism “I’ve made it clear that even as the United States works with Pakistan to meet the threat of terrorism, safe havens within Pakistan are not acceptable and that those behind the Mumbai terrorist attack must face justice.”
He confessed there are differences between his country and India; however, these differences could be worked out in order to buttress the bilateral ties.
