Condoleezza Rice pressures Pakistan over Mumbai attacks

US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice told Pakistan Wednesday to "cooperate fully and transparently" with India's investigation into last week's attacks on Mumbai. Speaking in New Delhi ahead of talks with Indian leaders, Rice urged Pakistan to respond "swiftly and transparently" to New Delhi's accusations that the gunmen came from across the border. Ties between the nuclear-armed South Asian rivals have become strained in the wake of the devastating assault on Mumbai which left 188 people dead. The two countries have fought three wars since their 1947 independence from British rule. "Pakistan needs to act with urgency and with resolve and cooperate fully and transparently," Rice told reporters prior to talks with Indian Foreign Minister Pranab Mukherjee and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. "That message will be delivered to Pakistan," said Rice, who was expected to fly to Islamabad on Thursday.
