Re: US-Afghan Strategic partnership
We simply cannot ignore the importance of Pakistan in bringing peace and stability to the region. At the same time, Pakistan also wishes to see a safe and stable Afghanistan. Therefore, it is easy to see that the need for cooperation between our nations should hold the utmost importance. Pakistan at the moment is plagued with the acts of terror on its land. Terrorist organizations like the TTP and the Haqqani network continue to infiltrate the land with their terrorist activities. These terrorist organizations have not just contained their activities to the land of Pakistan. The Haqqani network has operatives working on both sides of the border. We strongly encourage Pakistan to go after the elements that are using its homeland to spread chaos throughout the region. We are working hard to improve the level of cooperation and coordination between our nations, and hope to eliminate the menace that’s preventing us from achieving our common objectives.
