Pakistan returns helicopters given by US to monitor Durand Line
[Khaama] Pakistain has returned nine helicopters provided by the United States to monitor the Durand Line, it has been reported.According to the local media reports, the helicopters were given to Pakistain in 2002 and were used by the ministry of interior of Pakistain. Pak officials have told local media outlets that the helicopters were also used during the Balochistan  ...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it... operation and different anti-narcotics operations. According to the officials, the helicopters also assisted the ministry in counter-terrorism operations and their return will affect all operations, including the monitoring of the Pakistain-Afghanistan border. The main reason behind the return of the helicopters has not been announced by the Pak officials so far which comes as the relations between Islamabad and Washington strained due to the presence of the terror groups and their safe havens in the country. The relations between the two countries is at an all time low since the US President Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... announced his administration’s strategy for Afghanistan and South Asia. While announcing the US strategy late in August, the US President Donald Trump strongly criticized Pakistain regarding the terror sanctuaries, saying "For its part, Pakistain often gives safe haven to agents of chaos, violence, and terror. The threat is worse because Pakistain and India are two nuclear-armed states whose tense relations threaten to spiral into conflict. And that could happen." Posted by: trailing wife 2017-11-05 |
