Taking note of India's concerns,the United States on Tuesday warned Pakistan that any "misuse" of weapons supplied to it will be investigated and the US Congress will take it "seriously". "We will look into it very seriously," US Ambassador to India Timothy J Roemer told reporters here,asserting that arms supplied to Pakistan should be used only for the purpose mentioned in the agreement between the two countries. The envoy's comments came just days after Prime Minister Manmohan Singh,during his meeting with US President Barack Obama last week,voiced apprehensions about misuse of US military supplies to Pakistan. Singh's apprehensions had prompted Obama to assure him that India's concerns in this regard would be kept in mind while dealing with the issue. ".There are allegations of misuse of weapons given to Pakistan for other purposes. We will investigate it,Congress will take the issue seriously," Roemer said. The envoy also maintained that before the US undertook the strategic dialogue with Pakistan last month,his country reached out to India to seek its "concerns and perspective". Roemer said even after the strategic dialogue was over,his country sought India's views on the crucial issues pertaining to the Af-Pak situation and the region as whole.
