Washington, Apr 2 (IBNS) A day after the show of solidarity with India's Prime Minister at the White House Dinner, US President Barack Obama said India and Pakistan both need to reduce the subcontinent's serious nuclear threat, reports said.

"We need to see progress in Pakistan and India" and "make sure that as they develop military doctrines that they are not continually moving in the wrong direction," Obama said at the Nuclear Security Summit in Washington.

He  expressed serious concerns over the expanding nuclear arsenals in some countries, those with small tactical nuclear weapons that could be at greater risk of theft."

The US President made these remarks during a press conference at the conclusion of the two day Nuclear Security Summit in Washington, attended by more than 50 global leaders.
