US renews call on Pakistan to cut off extremists
[JOURNALDUCAMEROUN] US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Tuesday renewed calls on Pakistain to curb faceless myrmidons fighting in Afghanistan, saying Washington was holding its uneasy war partner accountable.Pompeo made the comment as he welcomed long-delayed legislative elections in Afghanistan, saying the United States was "encouraged" by voter turnout, despite reports of widespread problems including poll centers that failed to open or lacked voter rolls. "Our expectation is that Pakistain will not provide safe harbor to bully boyz on their western border," Pompeo told news hounds when asked about Islamabad’s role. "We couldn’t have made that message any more clear," he said, adding: "Pakistain will be held to account if they don’t achieve that, if they’re not sincere in that effort." "Everyone wants a reconciliation in Afghanistan and to achieve that, you can’t have a safe harbor for Taliban ...mindless ferocity in a turban... , for Haqqani and for others inside of Pakistain," he said, listing myrmidon movements fighting in Afghanistan.
