US Should Know Who Its Better Friends Are, Says Tony Abbott

On the India-Pakistan issue, Tony Abbott said: "America's fundamental interests lie in a strong friendship with India compared to Pakistan. India's fundamental interests lie in a strong partnership with fellow democracies much less than with dictatorships." 

He added: "Pakistan cooperated so close with US on terrorism that they gave (Osama) Bin Laden a home for the best part of a decade. There are good people in Pakistan, but it is still at heart a military society with a strong Islamist streak. India is totally different. I'm not saying US should not work with Pakistan where it can. But, it needs to know where its better friends are."
