Pakistan may not get funds from America

Washington, April 12: It seem to be The country Pakistan may not get the remaining $350 million of the $900 million coalition support fund from the US as it has not done enough to the dangerous Haqqani terror network to get the required certification from the Defence Secretary, officials said.

As mandated by the Congress, the Pentagon has started the process of reviewing the steps being taken by Pakistan against the Haqqani network, which the US believes poses a grave threat to its forces in Afghanistan.

Given the initial review and the feedback received from Pakistan, sources told PTI that Pakistan is unlikely to get the $ 350 of the $900 million of the Coalition Support Fund (CSF) this fiscal as sanctioned by the Congress.

US Defence Secretary Jim Mattis needs to issue a certificate to the Congress in this regard by June-end to become eligible to get $350 million from the Pentagon.
