London, Jan. 23 : British Foreign Secretary David Miliband has already ruffled India with his comments on Kashmir, and also his attempt to link the resolution of the Kashmir dispute to the ending of the terror menace in South Asia, but that diplomatic disaster, has not stopped him from cozying up to China.

London, Jan. 22 :British Foreign Secretary David Miliband continues to attract flak at home and from abroad for the way he sought to bulldoze the leadership in India into accepting that the root cause of terrorism in South Asia, was India's refusal to sit down with Pakistan and solve the over six decade long Kashmir dispute.

Indian officials have told The Times that they were upset by his suggestion made in an article for The Guardian and in private discussions.

Miliband wrote: "Resolution of the dispute over Kashmir would help deny extremists in the region one of their main calls to arms."

London, Jan. 18 : Britain's Conservative Party has said that the recent visit of Foreign Secretary David Miliband to India has been a public relations disaster, and could have damaged relations between the two countries considerably.

London - British Foreign Secretary David Miliband Thursday criticized the US-inspired "war on terror" as a strategy that might have promoted terrorism.

In an article in the Guardian newspaper, Miliband said that categorizing the threat posed by hugely different groups as a simple battle of "good and evil may have done more harm than good."

Miliband's thinly-veiled swipe at outgoing US president George W Bush came ahead of a speech he is due to deliver Thursday in the reopened Taj Mahal hotel in Mumbai which was at the centre of a November terrorist attack.
