WASHINGTON, Dec 4 (Reuters) - Pakistan must cooperate fully and communicate with India in the wake of the Mumbai attacks, the White House said on Thursday, adding the United States would keep the pressure on to ensure that happened.

"Pakistan needs to act with resolve, urgency, they need to cooperate fully and transparently and they need to keep the line of communication open between their country and India," White House spokeswoman Dana Perino said in response to a question about what Pakistan must do to live up to its commitment to fight terrorism.

"We will continue to try to help make that happen," she said. (Reporting by Jeremy Pelofsky, editing by Kristin Roberts)
