| Relations with Pakistan bigger challenge than Al-Qaeda, Taliban: Afghan President |
| 2016-07-25 |
| [DAWN] KABUL: Afghan President Ashraf Ghani on Saturday said state to state relations with Pakistan are a bigger challenge for Afghanistan than the existence of terror groups such as Al-Qaeda and Taliban. In an interview with Geo News, the Afghan President alleged that Pakistan provides sanctuaries to terrorists and trains them, making relations with Pakistan, the bigger challenge for his country. "We cannot understand when Pakistan says it will not allow a group of terrorists to amend its constitution, army act and prepares a National Action Plan (NAP) against them. Simultaneously, Pakistan tolerates another group which attempts to undermine the government and bring horror, death and destruction to Afghanistan," said Ghani. The Afghan president claimed he can provide addresses of Taliban leaders in Quetta. |

| #1 And who has a better understanding of the Afghanistan-Pakistan embroglio, Ghani or Obama? Obama places our military in harms way in Afghanistan and then helps fund the Pak military, which is responsible for supporting the Taliban and Haqqani enemies of Afghanistan. The Pak military has been intimately involved in the movement of Afghan narcotics for more than two decades. Thus, the sooner the US declares Pakistan a state supporter of terrorism, the sooner Pakistan will be forced to back-off from its vicious policy toward Afghanistan. |
