[In a strategic move to operate in India`s backyard, Pakistani officials have allegedly greased the palms of some senior Sri Lankan Army officials and bureaucrats and resorted to `honeytrap` tactics to sell arms and ammunition of poor quality to Sri Lanka at exorbitant prices. ]
This paragraph does not make any sense to me. Adopting a strategic move to operate in India`s backyard is one thing. Resorting to honeytrap tactics to sell poor quality arms is a different thing. If what said is that Pakistanis have made a strategic move to sell arms to SL with the aim of operating in the backyard of India, it might have make some sense. But then again, it is not a news, since Pakistanis were doing that for some time now. Of course, selling arms to Sri Lanka is a strategic move by Paks. But it has nothing to do with the rest of the article (including its heading) which is about a scandal. That `strategic move` part must have just added to re-annoy India. . |
