The United States has sought assurances from Pakistan that the weapons that are provided by the US will not be used against arch rival India.
US Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asia Robert Blake was addressing from a State Department blog forum in Washington where he said that India believes that a stable and prospers Pakistan would be in the wider interest of India and US.
Blake acknowledged that India had been less enthusiastic over US military support to Pakistan than the economic aid, but said: "I think they understand that we are trying to build up Pakistan's counter-insurgency capabilities."
"The United States consistently emphasizes... that it is very important in particular for Pakistan to take action against these groups that are targeting not only India but increasingly the United States," Blake said.
US weapons must not be used against India: Blake
