India wants to launch air strikes inside Pakistan: McCain
Updated at: 2224 PST, Tuesday, December 30, 2008
The former Republican presidential candidates statement preceded a relative de-escalation in the tension as both Islamabad and New Delhi stressed avoidance of war and talked peace over the weekend.
The Indians are on the verge of some kind of attack on Pakistan, such as an air attack on suspected militant camps, he told a daily newspaper in his home state Arizona published Monday.
Pakistan Tuesday saw some positive signs over the last two days in Indian leaders statements but recommended New Delhi de-activate its forward air bases and move its ground troops back to peacetime locations to resume friendly atmosphere.
I think its a very dicey situation, McCain said, noting how both countries have nuclear weapons.
