New Delhi, November 04: Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah today said India should “temper” expectations from the United States on dealing with Pakistan but felt that under the circumstances it has done what was expected of it.
Ahead of US President Barack Obama’s visit to India, Omar said the visit does pose “unique problems” to the state as an effort would be made to try and bring Jammu and Kashmir into “forefront” by terrorists and separatists.
“I think we should temper our expectations from the US by being a little more realistic of their own priorities. The US has a situation in Afghanistan for which they need Pakistan and can’t push it beyond a point,” he told PTI.
He was replying to a question whether the US was doing enough to rein in Pakistan.
