Musharraf promised permanent end to terror: US

"Deputy Secretary [of State Richard] Armitage was given assurances by President Musharraf on June 6 that ending of infiltration across the Line of Control would be permanent," a US embassy spokesman in New Delhi said when asked about Musharraf's comments in an interview to Newsweek magazine.

"I've told President Bush nothing is happening across the Line of Control. This is the assurance I've given. I'm not going to give you an assurance that for years nothing will happen," Musharraf told the magazine.

"We have seen positive results from that commitment and we have also seen significant positive steps by India since then," the spokesman said.
