Washington [US], Feb 3: The United States has said that it \u201cwould not endorse\u201d Rahul Gandhi\u2019s remarks on the foreign policies of the BJP-led government, which the Congress leader alleged had brought \u201cChina and Pakistan together.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Responding to a question on Rahul Gandhi suggesting that China and Pakistan are closer due to the policies of Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led central government, US State Department Spokesperson Ned Price in a press briefing said, \u201cI will leave it to the Pakistanis and the PRC to speak to their relationship. I certainly would not \u2013 would not endorse those remarks.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

Asked about Pakistan working closely with China, the spokesperson said that countries are not required to choose between the US and China, adding that American partnership conveys a series of advantages.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve made the point all along that it is not a requirement for any country around the world to choose between the United States and China. It is our intention to provide choices to countries when it comes to what the relationship with the United States looks like. And we think the partnership with the United States conveys a series of advantages that countries typically would not find when it comes to the sorts of partnerships that \u2013 \u201cpartnerships\u201d may be the wrong term; the sorts of relationships that the PRC has sought to \u2013 has sought to have around the world,\u201d said Price.<\/p>\n

He, however, reiterated that \u201cPakistan is a strategic partner of the United States\u201d.
\n\u201cWe have an important relationship with the government in Islamabad, and it\u2019s a relationship that we value across a number of fronts,\u201d added the spokesperson.<\/p>\n

On February 2, Rahul Gandhi while participating in the debate on the motion of thanks on the President\u2019s Address in Lok Sabha claimed that Prime Minister Modi brought Pakistan and China together and called it the \u201csingle biggest crime that you could commit against the people of India\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Chinese have a very clear vision of what they want to do. The single biggest strategic goal of India\u2019s foreign policy has been to keep Pakistan and China separate. What you have done is, you have brought them together,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cDo not be under any illusion, do not underestimate the force that is standing in front of you. You have brought Pakistan and China together. This is the single biggest crime that you could commit against the people of India,\u201d he added.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
