Clinton ends tough Pakistan trip
Hillary Clinton, reaching out one more time to Pakistan, is working to overcome tensions in a relationship she has described as scarred.
On her third day here and after countless roundtables and town hall meetings it appeared people were starting to be a bit more receptive. But in a BBC interview she acknowledged that challenges remained. Washington wants Pakistan to go after al-Qaeda and the hardcore Afghan Taliban.
Mrs Clinton leaves Pakistan encouraged by what she heard in official meetings but very much aware of the deep-seated mistrust of America here. Washington doesn't necessarily want to be loved here but it does need to manage the tension.
