WASHINGTON: US Republican Senator Lindsey Graham stressed late Friday night Pakistan’s importance for any sustainable solution in Afghanistan.
Graham made the statement after his discussion with Pakistan’s Ambassador to the United States Asad Majeed Khan on the situation in Afghanistan.
The US lawmaker termed the region as “complicated” and the times as “dangerous”, two days after explosions rocked Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul leaving more than 100 dead.
“We all must remember Pakistan is a nuclear-armed nation, and there is a Pakistan version of the Taliban who wishes [to] topple the Pakistani government and military,” Graham said.
