Washington, May 12 (PTI) The US has ruled out any cut in its assistance to Pakistan in view of the recent revelation that Tehrek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) is responsible for the failed Times Square bomb attempt, as demanded by certain American lawmakers.
"Well, as the Secretary (of State, Hillary Clinton) said in that very interview (to CBS news), we are satisfied with the cooperation that we have received from Pakistan in this investigation," Assistant Secretary of State for Public Affairs P J Crowley said.
"As she said, we have seen a sea change in change of attitudes within Pakistan over the last couple of years, but that we want and expect more from Pakistan going forward," Crowley said.
A day before, Special US Representative for Pakistan and Afghanistan Richard Holbrooke too had ruled out that there was any such move to cut the aid to Pakistan.
