'No one should doubt Pakistan's anti-terror efforts'
2009-12-01
[Dawn] Pakistan reacted strongly to British Prime Minister Gordon Brown's call for it to take tougher action against Al-Qaeda and find Osama bin Laden, saying no one should doubt Pakistan's efforts in the war against terror.

Foreign Office spokesman Abdul Basit pointed out that over 700 Al-Qaeda operatives were captured or killed over the past eight years -- which is a sign of Pakistan's commitment to the cause.

Basit said Pakistan was surprised by Brown's call that the country needs to do more in the campaign against Al-Qaeda.

He added that the world community has appreciated Pakistan's efforts in the war on terror.

Brown told the BBC that Pakistan must do more to 'break' Al-Qaeda and find Osama bin Laden. His remarks come ahead of Prime Minister Gilani's visit to Britain later this week.

Brown also informed President Asif Ali Zardari by phone on Sunday that he intends to speak about the hunt for Osama bin Laden.
