The United States and Pakistan are close to an agreement on air strikes in Afghanistan. According to a CNN report, the United States is close to an agreement with Pakistan on the use of Pakistani territory for airstrikes in Afghanistan.
Two senior Biden officials told the Associated Press that they had discussed the issue with Congress and that Pakistan was likely to allow US drones to carry out attacks in Afghanistan. In return, Pakistan has asked the United States to co-operate in the fight against terrorism and support it in its international stance against India, the source said.
The source said that these conditions are not final yet and Pakistan may have other demands. Earlier, Pakistan had said that the reports were baseless, but US sources said an agreement had been reached.
