Bush advised to stay away from Kashmir

A leading conservative think-tank has advised the Bush administration not to get involved in the Kashmir issue between India and Pakistan or attempt to mediate in the dispute.

The Heritage Foundation, in a memorandum on 'The President's Policy Challenges in Asia', said: "In establishing a new agenda for strengthening US relations with Asian countries, President George W Bush faces a number of challenges, some of which were left unresolved by his predecessor."

Heritage said, "He (Bush) must make sure that relations with nuclear rivals India and Pakistan are carefully managed." It advised the Bush administration "to support the ongoing negotiations over Kashmir", but said it should "refrain from getting involved or trying to negotiate a resolution".
