Antony concerned over US supply of modern weapons to Pak

Defence Minister AK Antony on Saturday expressed his anxiety over the United States' decision to supply hi-tech weapons to Pakistan. He also said the United States must ensure that these arms being given to Pakistan are not used against India. Antony's assertion followed reports that the US has cleared the supply of sophisticated laser-guided bomb kits, 12 surveillance drones and 18 F-16 fighters to enhance Pakistan military's capability to strike at Taliban and al-Qaeda targets located in remote tribal areas of Pakistan-Afghanistan border.
