Cameron’s India initiative was scripted by U.S.: WikiLeaks

  • David Cameron's highly-publicised visit to India within weeks of becoming Prime Minister and his remarks in Mumbai that Pakistan was "exporting" terror flowed from the Tories' commitment to America to improve relations with New Delhi and be "tougher" on Islamabad, WikiLeaks documents show.
  • According to a leaked cable from the U.S. ambassador in Britain, Louise Susman, published by the Guardian on Wednesday, the Tories who were then in the Opposition claimed that they were less dependent than Labour on votes of British-Pakistani community and were thus better placed to be tough with Pakistan while warming up to India.
