Pakistan urges India to stand down troops

So lets get this straight, the Mumbai terrorists were trained in Pakistan, received weapons from the ISI or Pakistani army. Pakistan moved its troops from the border with Afghanistan to its border with India. Pakistan teaches hatred against India in it's schools.

Now it's asking India to step down its troops? If anything it should be Pakistan doing anything and everything to reduce tensions.Reuters

ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - Pakistan urged India on Tuesday to reduce tension by deactivating its forward air bases and standing down troops, but New Delhi angrily rejected suggestions it was aggravating tension with its nuclear-armed rival.

A near-daily, frenzied exchange of words has added to bilateral tensions that touched the boiling point after last month's attacks in Mumbai in which 179 people were killed. India says the attackers were trained in Pakistan.

"I believe if India deactivates its forward air bases and similarly, relocates its troops to peacetime positions, that will be a positive step," Pakistani Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi said in a televised address.

"I believe by this, the existing tension in the region will be reduced," he said, calling for resumption of a dialogue suspended by India after the Mumbai attacks.[...]

But Indian Foreign Minister Pranab Mukherjee refuted suggestions India was mobilizing its military and aggravating an already tense atmosphere.

"We have not escalated any tension, so where is the question of our de-escalation?" he told reporters, referring to Qureshi's suggestions on reducing tensions between the two neighbors.
