U.S. to Sell F-16s to Pakistan Angers India
The United States plans to sell about two dozen F-16 fighters to Pakistan to aid its war on terror effort, a move that drew Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's disappointment and fear of regional imbalance. Officials say the sale, supported by President Bush, hinges on Pakistan's cooperation after 9/11, while India contemplates large purchases including F-16s or F-18s and seeks expansion of strategic ties with Washington.
