India-Pakistan
Pakistan expects pony same nuclear deal with US as with India: Gilani
2008-07-30
Visiting Pakistan Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani has said that Pakistan expects from United States a similar kind of nuclear deal that Washington has made with India.
And a pony
There should be no discrimination. If they want to give such nuclear status to India, we expect the same for Pakistan, Gilani said in a conversation with Richard N. Haass, the President of Council on Foreign Relations at a meeting jointly organized with the Middle East Institute here.

Gilani also spoke at length on a variety of issues, including terrorism and extremism, Pak-US relations, economy and the scope of democracy in the country. He said his government wanted to have cordial relations with all neighbours, including India and Afghanistan, as this would ensure peace in Asia.
On his terms, of course ...
With India, we want to resolve all issues, including the core issue of Kashmir, he said when asked about that relationship. According to The News and the Dawn newspapers, Gilani also said that his government was striving for the autonomy of the Constitution and the independence of judiciary and added that only political reconciliation could help meet the several challenges before the administration.

#3  I very much doubt they will get it. Pakistan is a known proliferator, whereas India isn't.

#1  "There should be no discrimination."
Bad behavior gets no consequences?

"He said his government wanted to have cordial relations with all neighbours, including India"
That's why Pakistan is firing mortars across the border today?

"only political reconciliation could help meet the several challenges before the administration"
Sounds hopeless.

"He described Islam as a religion of peace"
It's hopeless.

"He added, however, that Pakistan wanted better cooperation with the United States to share intelligence about foreign militants."
Note: "foreign" militants. He's in denial about his "domestic" militants.

I'm sure Obama will talk to him and everything will be okay.
