It is learnt that when Musharraf urged Mr. Bush to agree to civilian nuclear energy co-operation with Pakistan , Mr. Bush told him that so long as the entire truth regarding the role of A. Q. Khan and his associates in nuclear weapon proliferation and their suspected contacts with Iraq and Al Qaeda was not established to the satisfaction of the American public and the international community, the question of any US-Pakistan co-operation in the field of civilian nuclear energy just did not arise.

During their joint Press conference after the one-to-one talks between visiting President George Bush and Pakistan President Gen. Pervez Musharraf at Islamabad on March 4, 2006, Mr. Bush was asked about the likelihood of civilian nuclear energy co-operation between the US and Pakistan similar to the one the US had agreed to with India. He replied as follows: "We discussed a civilian nuclear program, and I explained that Pakistan and India are different countries with different needs and different histories. So, as we proceed forward, our strategy will take in effect those well-known differences." Pakistani journalists also asked separately U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice on this subject. She replied: "There are a lot of technological ways to pursue [Pakistan's] energy needs, but civil nuclear just isn't possible." According to well-informed sources, during the talks between Mr. Bush and the General, considerable time was taken up by questions relating to the further interrogation of A. Q. Khan, the so-called father of Pakistan's atomic bomb, and the need to get at Osama bin Laden before he carried out the threat uttered by him in his recent message of January to carry out another terrorist strike in the US homeland. Even though Gen. Musharraf has been projecting the A. Q. Khan case as closed, two requests from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) at Vienna were still pending . The first related to the IAEA's request for some samples of the centrifuges used in Pakistan's uranium enrichment plant at Kahuta and enriched uranium produced there . The IAEA Inspectors wanted to compare them with what they found in Iran. Musharraf was resisting this request till March of last year. Ms. Rice had strongly taken up this issue with the General during her visit to Islamabad in March last year. Under sustained pressure from the US, he ultimately agreed to hand over the samples to the IAEA and this has already been done. The second request of the IAEA, which is still pending, is relating to the independent interrogation of A. Q. Khan by IAEA investigators, preferably outside Pakistan. Musharraf has repeatedly rejected this request, pointing out that his investigators have already thoroughly questioned Khan and his associates and shared the resulting information with the IAEA. He was saying that the IAEA's demand for an independent interrogation amounted to distrusting what Pakistan had told it. He was also claiming that handing over A. Q. Khan, who is immensely popular in Pakistan, to foreign investigators could destabilise the political situation in Pakistan and damage the on-going war against Al Qaeda. It is learnt that when Musharraf urged Mr. Bush to agree to civilian nuclear energy co-operation with Pakistan , Mr. Bush told him that so long as the entire truth regarding the role of A. Q. Khan and his associates in nuclear weapon proliferation and their suspected contacts with Iraq and Al Qaeda was not established to the satisfaction of the American public and the international community , the question of any US-Pakistan co-operation in the field of civilian nuclear energy just did not arise. He reportedly said that while the IAEA had considerable information on A. Q. Khan's role with regard to Libya and Iran, the picture is incomplete with regard to North Korea, his contacts with the Saddam Hussein regime in Iraq and with Al Qaeda. In this connection, he also referred to the recent warning of bin Laden about another terrorist strike in the US homeland being planned by Al Qaeda. It is believed that Mr. Bush further said that it was in the interest of Pakistan and Musharraf himself that bin Laden and his No.2 Ayman al-Zawahiri were captured or killed before they carried out their threat against the US and the entire truth regarding A. Q. Khan and his associates was established by an independent international investigation. According to these sources, the General replied that he may be agreeable to a further interrogation of Khan in Pakistani territory by a team of joint interrogators from the US and Pakistan, provided the modalities for such an interrogation could be worked out to the mutual satisfaction of the two sides. However, he did not make a firm commitment. Gen. Musharraf briefly referred to this in a subsequent interview on March 5, 2006, with the CNN. He said: "Pakistan and the US had discussed before that we need to have some kind of an interrogation with him, which is mutually in a methodology which will satisfy mutual concerns. And we are going forward on that, so there was no need for further discussion."
