Vali Nasr from the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies in Washington talks about US-Pakistan relations as President Asif Ali Zardari visits New York. Transcript JIM MIDDLETON, PRESENTER: The anger in the Muslim world over the ?Innocence of Muslims? video has further complicated the already fraught relationship between the United States and Pakistan. Pakistan's president Asif Ali Zardari raised the issue in a meeting with Hillary Clinton in New York, adding to divisions over American drone strikes in Pakistan and Islamabad's sheltering of terrorist groups including the Haqqani Network. Vali Nasr is dean of the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies in Washington. JIM MIDDLETON: The United States and Pakistan emerged from their latest discussions talking conciliation and cooperation, speaking of a road map for the way ahead. But are relations between Washington and Islamabad actually back on track? VALI NASR: They are much more stable than they were a few months back, which means that there is some room for cooperation on intelligence, on open supply routes that can support US troops in Afghanistan. But the relations are still rather frosty. There is still a lot of bitter taste in the mouths of both sides after the tense relations last year over an American apology which came rather late after the death of a number of Pakistani soldiers in a border incident.
