The United States has issued new warnings to Pakistan regarding the alleged support of the country to Taliban and the cross-border attacks in Afghanistan allegedly involving the Taliban and the notorious Haqqani terrorist network, it has been reported.

The new warnings were reportedly issued during a meeting between the US Vice President Mike Pence and the Pakistani Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi.
The United States reminded Pakistan that it was prepared to take necessary steps to protect its personnel in Afghanistan if Islamabad did not stop cross-border attacks, according to the sources privy of the development.
“Six months after the announcement of the South Asia Policy, Pakistan is yet to take the kind of decisive actions that the US is seeking,” one of the officials said. “We are continuing to look for real actions and not word on the Taliban and the Haqqani sanctuaries,” a US official quoted by Dawn News said.
The official demanded “cooperative action” against terrorists from Pakistan but warned that the United States was prepared to take its own measures to protect its personnel in Afghanistan if Islamabad did not.
“It’s Pakistan choice in which direction it wants to take the future of the relationship,” said the official, adding that the US was still engaging Pakistani leaders and was willing to address its concerns.
