Row over Rahul Gandhi speech: American partnership has a series of advantages, the US State Department spokesperson said, adding Pakistan is a "strategic partner of the United States"
The US doesn't endorse Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's comment in parliament on India's foreign policy, the State Department spokesperson has said.
Mr Gandhi while criticising the government over a range of issues yesterday had blamed Prime Minister Narendra Modi for following a flawed policy, both domestic and international, that has led to the creation of "two Indias".
"Ask yourself why you are not able to get a guest on Republic Day. We are completely isolated and surrounded... You have brought Pakistan and China together and this is the single biggest crime you could have committed against the people of India," Mr Gandhi said.
On a question by reporters to US State Department spokesperson Ned Price over ties between Pakistan and China in the context of Mr Gandhi's comment, he said he "would not endorse those remarks".
