McCain calls for support of Pakistan to eliminate militancy in Afghanistan
2017-07-05
[DAWN] The United States is counting on Pakistain’s support to eliminate militancy, in particular the Haqqani network, Senator John Maverick McCain
... the Senator-for-Life from Arizona, former presidential candidate and even more former foot soldier in the Reagan Revolution. As an ordinary citizen he greased the infamous hookers peeing on the Obamabed in Moscow dossier in an attempt to smear President Trump...
said during a visit to the Afghan capital on Tuesday.

"We have made it very clear that we expect they (Pakistain) will cooperate with us, particularly against the Haqqani network and against terrorist organizations," said McCain, chairman of the US Senate Armed Services Committee, in Kabul.

"If they don’t change their behaviour, maybe we should change our behaviour towards Pakistain as a nation," he insisted.

The senator’s statement came one day after he led a bipartisan Senate delegation to Islamabad, where Pak officials said he had reaffirmed the country’s role in regional stability.

The senators’ visit to Islamabad and Kabul comes at a time when the US is gearing up to send more troops to Afghanistan to support Afghan forces straining to beat back the resurgent Taliban
...the Pashtun equivalent of men...
