'US to pursue Osama in Pakistan if it has evidence'
 If the United States has explicit proof of Osama Bin Ladens presence in Pakistans border regions, then it will categorically pursue him, US Deputy Secretary of State John Negroponte has said. Speaking to Charlie Rose, he said that as far as Bin Laden was concerned, the US would pursue him regardless of any permission from Pakistan to conduct a military operation within its borders. Im pretty confident that thats the way the president would react, he added.Negroponte said that Pakistan was a very important country with respect to its proximity to Afghanistan. On President Pervez Musharrafs continued importance to the country, he said that it appeared that the prime ministers role was taking on greater importance. Posted by: Fred 2008-04-27 |
