More on agenda than India, Pakistan crisis: Powell

WASHINGTON: Secretary of State Colin Powell said on Thursday that he had much more on his agenda with Pakistan and India than just the current crisis between the two nuclear armed rivals. Powell, who heads to South Asia before the end of the month as part of a new wave of visits to the region by foreign diplomats, betrayed signs of frustration at the crisis on disputed Kashmir, during a radio interview. "We will certainly have discussions, I'm sure, in both India and Pakistan with respect to the current situation," said Powell on National Public Radio. "But I also want to talk to the Indians and Pakistanis about the broader US agenda with respect to each of those countries. "I want to make sure they understand that we're working hard to resolve the current tension in the region, but I also want to build on US-Indian relations and US-Pakistani relations, and not have the world just see this relationship in terms of the current crisis," he said.
