WASHINGTON: Indicating it is closely following reports that militants have seized control of a counterterrorism centre in Bannu, the United States on Monday offered unconditional support to Pakistan in its battle against the TTP and similar groups, saying that defeating terrorism was a shared goal of both countries.
At the same time, it also offered to assist India and Pakistan in resolving their differences, reminding them that they were key global partners and that America would like to continue ‘valuable partnerships’ with both.
US State Department Spokesperson Ned Price made these remarks at a news briefing, hours after Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari reached Washington for talks with US officials.
“We offer our deepest sympathies to those injured. We urge those responsible to cease all acts of violence, release the hostages and end the seizure of the counterterrorism centre,” he said.
“The government of Pakistan is a partner when it comes to these shared concerns, including the challenge of terrorist groups inside Afghanistan… terrorist groups along the Afghan-Pakistan border… we stand ready to assist, whether with this unfolding situation or other situations,” he said while responding to a question about Monday’s takeover of a CTD centre in Bannu.
Responding to another question about last week’s war of words between the Indian and Pakistani foreign ministers inside the United Nations, Mr. Price said: “We have a global strategic partnership with India. I have just spoken to the depth of our partnership with Pakistan. The two relationships stand on their own. It’s not a zero-sum relationship.”
The US, he said, sees the importance of maintaining these valuable partnerships with our Indian and our Pakistani friends, adding that they had a relationship in which “we can be friends with both”.
“As far as these disagreements are concerned… we have partnerships with both countries and that makes us not want to see wars of words between India and Pakistan. We would like to see constructive dialogue between India and Pakistan.”

Double edged sword for Pakistan. Whether its US or Pakistan dealing with terrorism from Afghanistan, Taliban and TTP would not take things lying down. Retaliation would be there and common people would be the victims. The porous Afghanistan border won't be enough to stop TTP continuing with the attacks on Pakistan. Super power like US could not defeat Taliban for decades being within Afghanistan how they can stop terrorism not being in Afghanistan.

@Constantine, On the world stage Pakistan looks incapable of addressing security issues and terrorism
On world stage, India is seen as occupying IOK.

Pakistanis waste their time competing and fighting india. That is a lost cause. Pakistan will never win. Pakistanis don’t have the skills or smarts to compete with Indians.

@Zak, There is no rivalry. Even a millionth of an ant from Pakistan is enough to crush a billion Indian elephants a trillion times. I want Kashmir.
IOK will be liberated, along with ants and elephants, all free of RSS occupation and sick ideology.

It is unfortunate to see Pakistani politicians and officials to take any defensive position after huge prices paid by the whole Nation and the unmatched efforts of the armed forces to fight and safeguard our interests. Now when two of SSG commandoes loss and successful defeat of TTP no compromises must be made at all. Pakistan is not under US designed Pro-Bharatian foreign agenda. Bharat is our arch enemy who conducts every effort to take down Pakistan's interests.

Pakistan must not take this briefings as its line to foreign policy. Pakistan is in no means at any forum could be a strategic partner to Bharat until Kashmir is not freed from the Bharatian claws.

@John the Baptist, haven’t they already started on the rivalry bit with their $450M package for the F16s?
The US are a solid partner of P’stan in the rivalry with India.
Don’t ever doubt that.
