The finalization of the deal comes days after the Mumbai attacks which were allegedly carried out from Pakistan. Pakistan’s president denied that his government was implicated in the attacks while Jobim has tried to downplay worries over the missile pact:
"I do not know whether the terrorists (involved in the Mumbai bombings) are Pakistanis, but the business we are doing is with the (Pakistani) government, not with terrorists," he said.Image- PRESS TV (“An airborne anti-radar missile.”)
