The US said that Pakistan has an option to guard itself from psychological oppression as the nation has experienced immensely fear-based oppressor assaults.
The US made the statement after Interior Minister Rana Sanullah said that if Kabul doesn’t do something to get rid of the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) militants in Afghanistan, she would attack them.
Under Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s leadership, the National Security Committee (NSC) has also requested that the Kabul government refrain from providing safe havens for terrorist organizations operating on its soil.
Since the TTP announced that it would be ending the ceasefire with Pakistan, Pakistan has seen a sharp rise in terror attacks, particularly in Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
At a weekly press conference held in Washington, US State Department spokesperson Ned Price stated, “We’re aware of the recent statement by the Pakistani National Security Committee.”
Terrorist attacks have wreaked havoc on the people of Pakistan. Pakistan is entitled to self-defense against terrorism.
According to Price, the United States calls on the Taliban to keep their promise that Afghan soil will never be used as a launchpad for international terrorist attacks.
“These are among the very responsibilities that the Taliban have been not able or reluctant to satisfy to date,” he said.
According to the spokesperson, the United States will respond, as has been stated repeatedly.
“The Taliban have earnestly committed to the worldwide local area. In any case, more critically, they have earnestly committed to the Afghan public. We are most concerned about those commitments. He emphasized that one of the commitments that the Taliban have made to their own people but have repeatedly broken is the emphasis on human rights.
“As long as the Taliban is not able to fulfill these commitments, we will respond in a way that registers our strong condemnation while continuing to support the Afghan people,” the State Department spokesman continued. Also, we won’t do anything that could put the Afghan people’s humanitarian well-being in further jeopardy.
