New Delhi: Former US Ambassador to India Robert Blackwill has said China is using Pakistan to keep India engaged and block its economic growth.
In a lecture in the national capital, he said Pakistan keeps lying to the US and that the US keeps falling for their lies. He also described the US policy vis a vis Pakistan as "bizarre."
This is significant coming from a member of the US establishment and that too at a time US Defence Ashton Carter is visiting India.
Earlier in April, China blocked the move by India to get Pakistan-based terror outfit Jaish-e-Mohammad(JeM) chief Masood Azhar designated as international terrorist, saying the case "did not meet the requirements" of the Security Council.
The submission was backed with strong evidence of the outfit's terror activities and its role in the Pathankot attack that killed seven Indian military personnel.
