Urging both Pakistan and India to devote their energies toward the war on terrorism, United States Secretary of State Colin Powell asked both the countries to avoid a 'flare up'.
Acknowledging 'deep concern' about the situation in Kashmir he said, "We have been encouraging both sides to exercise restraint, more than we normally would encourage them to do."
"This is not the time to see a flare-up or an exchange that might escalate," he said speaking to a news agency.
"I think both sides understand that and we get assurances from both sides that they do understand it and not withstanding reports ... that something (in Kashmir) was about to happen imminently, nothing has happened beyond what one sees on a steady basis," Powell added.
"There have been some deaths, but it is not out of (sync with) what one normally sees along the Line of Control and across the borders," he added.
