WASHINGTON: US CENTCOM Commander General Joseph has testified before the Senate Armed Services Committee on the existing situation in the region.
The general lauded “promising coordination” between the Pak-Afghan militaries, he said, adding that the US government was encouraged by military operation Radd-ul-Fasaad “in which they set up simultaneous multiple blocking positions along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border in order to reinforce ANDSF efforts to disrupt Islamic State-Khorasan activities.”
The Pak-US relationship “remains a very important one”, he maintained.
“We look forward to continuing our engagement with the Pakistani military leadership, to include the new Chief of the Army Staff General Qamar Javed Bajwa in the days ahead as we work together in pursuit of shared interests.” –Agencies
