ISLAMABAD: President Donald Trump has reaffirmed his commitment to build widespread and long -standing relations with the United States a few hours after Islamabad’s praise to arrest ISIS operators in the deadly suicide bombing of 2021.
The statement came when Deputy Prime Minister Dar received a call from US National Security Advisor Michael Walts on March 4 (Tuesday), in which he reached President Trump’s praise and thanked the Pakistan government for its efforts in the Foreign Office, according to the Foreign Office.
President Trump announced on Tuesday that Daesh operators, who allegedly planned a suicide bombing outside Kabul Airport in 2021, were arrested during the chaos of the US military.
The bomber exploded a bomb blast in a bomb blast when he tried to flee Afghanistan, in which 170 Afghan and 13 US troops took control of the capital, killing 170 Afghan and 13 US troops.
In his first address to the Congress after returning to the White House, Trump announced on Tuesday that Pakistan had helped the arrest of the “top terrorist responsible for the atrocities”.
The FO said in a statement that FM Dar congratulated the NSA on the assumption of his post and reiterated that Pakistan was looking forward to promoting its long -standing and widespread relations with the United States under President Trump and his administration.
He also confirmed his commitment to continue his cooperation with the United States in the field of counter -terrorism.
Dar also praised President Trump’s announcement of withdrawal of US military equipment left behind in Afghanistan.
According to the statement, the two sides confirmed their commitment to increase cooperation in the IT, energy and mineral sectors.
He added, “In the coming days, he also agreed on the need for continuous dialogue on trade, investment, climate change and health as part of a broad -based agenda.”
Who is Muhammad Sharif Allah?
Muhammad Sharifullah, also known as Jafar, is the leader of the Daesh Khorasan Branch in Afghanistan.
The United States has accused the United States of providing material assistance and conspiracies to a designated foreign terrorist organization, which has resulted in death.
The Department of Justice said on Wednesday that the operators acknowledged the FBI’s special agents “to help prepare the attack”, which included scouting a route near the airport for the attacker. “
Attorney General Palm Bondi said in a statement, “This evil ISIS terrorist intended to brutalize 13 brave Marines.”
Sharifullah also confessed to being involved in several other attacks, the Department of Justice said, including the Moscow Crooks City Hall attack in March 2024, in which he said “he shared instructions on how to use AK -style rifles and other weapons for the attackers.”
In a Tuesday speech, Trump took a swipe for his predecessor, Biden’s “devastating and disqualified evacuation” from Afghanistan, and thanked Pakistan for “helping to arrest the monster”.
In August 2021, the United States withdrew its last troops from Afghanistan, which ended the chaos of tens of thousands of Afghans who arrived at the Kabul airport in hopes of boarding a flight out of the country.
US troops were tied to a cargo plane after a storm hit the airport, climbing the plane – and some of the runways – which were broadcast on news bulletin around the world.
In April 2023, the White House announced that a Daesh officer involved in planning the attack on the airport’s Abbey Gate was killed by a new Taliban government in Afghanistan in an operation.
‘Take us advantage of worries’
Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif thanked Trump for “recognizing and praising Pakistan’s role and cooperation in counter -terrorism efforts in Afghanistan.”
He wrote on the Social Media Platform X, “We will continue to contribute to the United States in achieving regional peace and stability.”
Pakistan’s strategic importance has ended since the withdrawal of the United States and NATO from Afghanistan, which has seen a shortage of violence in the border areas.
Tensions between neighboring countries have increased, Islamabad has alleged that Afghan soil launched on Kabul, which launched an attack on Pakistan, has been accused of failing to shelter militants.
Daesh Kabul Bob, which claims that several recent attacks have been claimed in Afghanistan, launched several bloody international attacks, including killing more than 90 people in the Iranian bombing last year.
Michael Kogalman, director of the South Asian Institute at the Wilson Center, said on X, “Pakistan is” trying to take advantage of US concerns about terrorism in Afghanistan and support a new security partnership. “
He added, “Pakistan’s assistance in catching the Abbey Gate attack plot should be seen in this context.”
