WASHINGTON: The US House Armed Services Committee has placed strict conditions on the financial and military assistance being given out to Pakistan.
The committee, in the defence budget bill, asked Pakistan to openly support America in the war against terror. It further asked Pakistan to stop the supply of explosive materials used in IED's to Afghanistan.
The American authorities maintained that the explosives, that were being sent to Afghanistan via Pakistan, were responsible for the deaths and injuries to American troops and that this situation is totally unacceptable to the US.
The said defence budget bill, that already is supported by the representatives of the Republican and Democratic parties, would be presented in the next session.
