"It's unacceptable for anything to happen in Pakistan that is responsible for promotion of terrorism elsewhere. To be fair to Pakistan, they have taken some steps," said the British PM.
"I don't think Britain is a great place to mediate on this issue," 43-year-old Cameron, who is on a two-day maiden visit to India, told NDTV.
Cameron, who will hold talks with Prime Minister Manmohan Singh here on Thursday, said, "We want India and Pakistan to have good relations, to have good dialogue and to settle these issues between them. It is for India and Pakistan to do that."
