 "Singh did not complain to Obama on Pakistan: Khurshid")
"No, No. It was not a complaint. I do not think, we should see this as a complaint," Khurshid told PTI in an interview when asked about news reports in Pakistani media that Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif was not pleased about Singh taking up the issue of Pakistan with Obama.
"We should understand this in a context. They (Obama and Singh) are good friends. They wanted to be open and wanted to share with each other. And Prime Minister does not hold back as far as Obama is concerned," the minister said.

"The Prime Minister has very open in his relationship with Obama. They like each other. They feel for each other. They use words like inspire me. And Obama holds him in a very high esteem. So it is sharing concerns between friends," said Khurshid, who was present in the meeting with Obama on Friday.
