Powell said US President George W. Bush would soon designate Pakistan a "major non-NATO ally," a move that will significantly enhance military cooperation between the two countries and make it easier for Islamabad to acquire certain armaments from Washington. 'I advised the foreign minister this morning that we will also be making a notification to our Congress that will designate Pakistan as a major non-NATO ally for the purposes of our future military to military relations,' Powell told reporters after meeting his counterpart Khurshid Mahmud Kasuri. Khurshid Kasuri designate the talks really fruitful, 'Pakistanis also against Nuclear non-proliferation because it is in our favour', said Kasuri.
