WASHINTON: The US State Department Spokesman John Kirby told the press that America is aware of the tensions at Pak-India border and acknowledges the need for both sides t
o exchange in peaceful dialogue.
Upon being asked by the press, he said T
ravel Warnings were not indicative of bilateral relations with any country, and were simply the government’s commitment to provide up-to-date, as possible, information to US citizens that are traveling or residing abroad.
He clarified that t
ravel warning is not meant to discourage people from actually traveling or doing legitimate business, adding that &ldquo
;it’s really important for you and for people in Pakistan to understand what a T
ravel Warning is. It is simply providing, in this case, a routine update of general informa
tion so that they can make informed decisions about traveling,” he said while adding that Pakistan was not the only country
in the world which has existing T
ravel Warnings.
The spokesman said that the United States encourages both sides to talk matters out and realise that they face a common enemy
in the face of extremism.
