US: Congressional committee moves to place conditions on release of US aid to Pakistan demanding action against Haqqani network |
In the United Sates , a powerful Congressional committee today moved to place conditions on the release of US aid to Pakistan to push Islamabad into taking action against the Haqqani network. Releasing the text of its version of the national defence authorisation (NDAA) bill, the House Armed Services Committee said that USD 350 million of the USD 700 million proposed financial assistance to Pakistan may not be released till the defence secretary certifies to Congress that the country has taken actions against the Haqqani network militants. Since January, the Trump administration has suspended its security assistance to Pakistan alleging that Islamabad has not been taking satisfactory actions against terrorist safe havens inside the country. The aid suspended has not be relocated yet but has been kept aside for Pakistan to be used later if and when it starts taking actions against terrorists.
