| Obama Admin can't meddle in Kashmir issue: Ex US envoy

| A former US Ambassador to Pakistan on Wednesday said the Obama Administration cannot "meddle" in the Kashmir issue, but feels the US has a major role in bringing New Delhi and Islamabad together in finding a solution to the conflict.
William Milam, who served in Islamabad from 1998 to 2001, identified India and Kashmir as one of the issues, which the new US administration would focus on while trying to find a solution to Pakistan.
"Everything that Pakistan does, at least in foreign affairs and security issues, is viewed through the lens of India, which it views as its eternally hostile neighbour," Milam said, adding that the US can't do much at least on the Kashmir issue due to India's position on it.
"There's no good way we can do this. We certainly cannot be seen to meddle or to even mediate on the issues, particularly the Kashmir issue. But we really have to work on putting this back together," Milam said testifying before the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom
