| US conveys 'concrete' steps Pakistan must take to resume security aid flow |
| 2018-01-09 |
| [DAWN] The United States has told Pakistain what it must do if it wants Washington to resume paying out hundreds of millions of dollars in security aid, the Pentagon said on Monday. "Our expectations are straightforward," Pentagon front man Colonel Rob Manning told news hounds. "Taliban ...Arabic for students... and Haqqani leadership and attack planners should no longer be able to find safe haven or conduct operations from Pak soil." Last week, 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... froze payments from the "Coalition Support Fund" for Pakistain, worth $900 million, saying Pakistain is not doing enough to target Afghan Taliban and Haqqani group bases. The coalition funding is set aside to refund Pak spending on counter-terrorism operations. Also in question is almost $1 billion of US military equipment that has allowed Pakistain access to advanced military technology. "The United States has conveyed to Pakistain specific and concrete steps that it could take," Manning said. "We stand ready to work with Pakistain to combat terrorist groups without distinction. We will continue these conversations with the Pak government in private." Pentagon officials are watching to see if Pakistain is going to retaliate against the US by cutting supply lines to US troops from its port at Bloody Karachi ...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It is among the largest cities in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous... into Afghanistan. So far, Manning said, there was no sign Islamabad was preparing to take that course of action. He stressed that the suspension of funding was not permanent "at this time" and that the money was not being diverted elsewhere. |
