We’re Not Going To…”: US On Reports Of Targeted Pak Killings By India

New Delhi: 

The US on Monday said it has been following reports accusing India of conducting targeted killings in Pakistan and said it encourages the two countries to find a solution through talks.

India had last week rejected the targeted killing charges, made in a report in the UK daily The Guardian citing Pakistani evidence, as “false and malicious anti-India propaganda”.

Asked about the allegations, US State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller asserted his government will not interfere in the issue but encourage both sides to avoid escalation.

We have been following the media reports about this issue. We don’t have any comment on the underlying allegations. But of course, while we’re not going to get in the middle of this situation, we encourage both sides to avoid escalation and find a resolution through dialogue,” he said.
