The United States has urged the interim Taliban government in Afghanistan to ensure that terrorist attacks are not launched from Afghan soil.
Answering various questions during his regular media briefing in Washington, Principal Deputy Spokesperson of the US State Department Vedant Patel said we deeply regret the loss of life and injustices sustained during the attack in Pakistan. He said we urge both sides to address any differences.
The US Deputy Spokesperson said we remain committed to ensuring that Afghanistan never again becomes a safe haven for terrorists who wish to harm the United States or our partners and allies.
He said we are in regular communication with Pakistani leaders to discuss Afghanistan in detail, including through our counterterrorism dialogue and other bilateral consultations.
