WASHINGTON: Pakistan ambassador to US Hussain Haqqani has urged on Tuesday that United States must bag-out 30 billion dollars as aid for Afghanistan and Pakistan to counter terrorism sparked by Taliban and al-Qaeda.
Talking to US daily Haqqani said extremists wish to destabilize Pakistan so in this connection, ambassador urged, US’s additional economic aid package to slash anti-US sentiments and fight al-Qaeda is utterly necessary.
“The US’s economic packages for Pakistan keep no status in comparison with the bailout package sought for US itself to tackle ongoing global economic meltdown in America”, he compared and underlined, “$5 billion needed for Pakistan and Afghanistan every year from US and its allied countries for training of local people to fight against Taliban and al-Qaeda here in this part of the world.”
