| Carrying a brief for resumption of Indo-Pak dialogue, US Under Secretary of State William Burns met the Indian leadership on Wednesday after which he confined himself by saying that India is a major foreign policy priority for the US.
Burns met External Affairs Minister S M Krishna after a detailed discussion with Foreign Secretary Shivshankar Menon on wide range of topics including Indo-US relations and situation in the region with a special focus Pakistan.
The State Department had publicly said in Washington that Burns will pitch for resumption of dialogue between New Delhi and Islamabad during his meetings with the Indian leadership during his four-day visit to Delhi.
However, Burns told reporters after his 40-minute meeting with Krishna that he had "excellent" discussions with the External Affairs Minister, Home Minister P Chidambaram and Menon.
