External Affairs Minister S M Krishna on Wednesday said he was "sceptical" about the outcome of his meeting with his Pakistani counterpart Shah Mahmood Qureshi in the absence of Pakistan acting against perpetrators of the Mumbai attacks.
Krishna also asked the US to be more "circumspect" in providing aid to Pakistan, which was being diverted for use against India.
Ahead of his meeting with Qureshi on Sept 27, Krishna said he was "sceptical" about its outcome, maintaining that only "sincerity and seriousness" on the part of Pakistan would provide a "sound backdrop" for a meaningful dialogue.
He said unless Pakistan government shows "seriousness and sincerity" in going after the perpetrators of the Mumbai attacks, an "atmosphere of trust" cannot be created between the two countries.
"I don't think an atmosphere of trust would have been created between India and Pakistan to proceed with a meaningful dialogue. In the absence of that I am sceptical about it," he told a TV channel.
