July 14, 2011 15:49

Here's what's expected during the discussions with US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Monday.

The Indo-US strategic dialogue will focus on the situation in Afghanistan and Pakistan and nuclear cooperation apart from counter-terrorism.

Charge d'Affaires Peter Burleigh said both sides are committed to a "long-term" partnership which covers almost every "conceivable" issue from education to counter-terrorism in the bilateral relationship.

Asked if the US had any intelligence input on yesterday's attack, the envoy said, "Not to the best of (my) knowledge" while noting that apart from exchanging views on various groups and challenges that confront both the countries, the US shares any kind of information that "impacts security of India".
