Pakistan begs before Afghan Taliban, urges action against TTP bases in Afghanistan

The Express Tribune quoted sources as saying that in line with the decision of NSC, the Afghan government was told that Kabul will have to neutralise the TTP threat as promised in the Doha agreement as well as bilateral meetings between the two countries.

To avoid any deterioration in ties, Pakistan persuaded the Afghan Taliban behind closed doors.

The Afghan Taliban government, which relies heavily on Pakistan’s crucial support, was informed that the failure to address the TTP issue would only complicate bilateral ties between the two neighbours, forcing Islamabad to halt cooperation.

Sources, however, told the newspaper that the Afghan Taliban government was adamant that Pakistan must pursue talks with the TTP.

Sources said the Afghan Taliban in private meetings were willing to address Pakistan’s concerns but were reluctant to take any action against them because of their close links with the TTP.

In the last three months alone, the TTP, which wants to impose Islamic Sharia law across Pakistan, has claimed responsibility for over 150 attacks against the security forces.

I have this nagging feeling that the military establishment is taking a back seat EVEN from the taliban front and letting them wreak havoc so that people feel reminded of the fear in the post musharraf/PPP government era. Like they’ll let the TTP do their shit and harm innocent lives and then swoop in with mission “Xyz” to eliminate the TTP presence and go down hard on them so that people start trusting and respecting Lumber 1 again.

I don't think so. We just don't have the money to fight them. It costs $26k dollars to fly an F-16 for an hr. you fly 5 and you are talking about $100k+ just for an hr of flight. with $4.5 billion dollars in reserves and no sight of more loans, the last thing establishment wants is open a frontier. they are doing small scale operations where they kill 5-6 terrorists here and there but nothing like operation zarb e azb is going to happen in 2023-24 or until they get some money in reserves.

No, it's because of people like Imran Khan and similar sympathizers in establishment who think TTP are Naraz bhais who need to be talked and coddled that gets us this result. Imran Khan was boasting about settling tens of thousands of them in Pakistan.

He actually referred to their war as 'Jihad'. he literally said the jihad word for ttp.

But they were and now we also know that India had a large role to play in mobilising other terror elements within the country (sheltered by the establishment of course, go figure) to ensure said wave of terror remained steady.

Khan sb wanted to welcome them with open arms and settle them in wazaristan. That is also the view of the majority of Pakistanis, they are our 'misguided muslim' brothers

They're your very well guided muslim brothers sweaties Kill all pakoids outside minecraft

Your preferred policy didn't work for 15 years though. During Khan's tenure attacks did decrease. US couldn't find a military solution for this issue, but you think you can? Lololol how's that working out for you. Whether we like it or not, a multi-pronged geopolitical and a political solution is what will work. Else TTP's financiers will just continue to fund them everytime we weed them out.

Ahahahahahahaha USA gave up one of its countless imperial outposts so they want to surrender their country
