, as discussed in a recent conversation between Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar and U.S. National Security Advisor Mike Waltz.

The Pak Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced that a telephone conversation took place between Pakistain’s Deputy Prime Minister, Ishaq Dar, and U.S. National Security Advisor, Mike Waltz. During the call, both sides discussed the retrieval of U.S. weapons from the Taliban. This dialogue highlights the ongoing concern over the presence of American military equipment in Afghanistan.

According to the Pak Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the phone call took place on Tuesday, March 4. The ministry’s statement emphasized that U.S. officials expressed appreciation for Pakistain’s efforts in combating terrorism. The conversation underlined the ongoing cooperation between the two countries on counterterrorism matters.

Ishaq Dar reaffirmed Pakistain’s desire to strengthen relations with Washington. He emphasized that Pakistain is committed to continued cooperation with the United States in the fight against terrorism, further solidifying the bilateral partnership.

In response to comments made by U.S. President Donald Trump

, Ishaq Dar welcomed the President’s position on the retrieval of remaining U.S. military equipment in Afghanistan. The Pak leadership has repeatedly expressed concerns about the potential use of these weapons for attacks against Pakistain.

The conversation between high-ranking U.S. and Pak officials took place after Donald Trump had previously announced that the criminal mastermind behind the deadly Kabul airport attack had been captured with Pakistain’s cooperation. The U.S. President also expressed gratitude to Pakistain for its assistance in this operation.

Mujahid, a spokesperson for the Taliban, made a statement suggesting that Pakistain’s actions could bolster the argument that the country harbors terrorist organizations like ISIS. He criticized Pakistain for its role in handing over key figures involved in major terrorist operations, questioning the motivations behind their cooperation with the United States.

The handover has raised concerns about Pakistain’s role in regional security dynamics. While some see it as a positive step in counterterrorism efforts, others view it as evidence that Pakistain might be indirectly fostering an environment that allows holy warrior groups like ISIS to operate. This development has added further complexity to the already fragile geopolitical situation in South Asia.
