Pakistani authorities have no clear strategy to eradicate the Taliban. Government forces of evil to take the positions taken great trouble to the Islamist militia. Recognizing this, the U.S. government wrote in a progress report on Afghanistan and Pakistan, delivered Tuesday, April 5, to Congress. In the districts of Mohmand and Bajaur, Pakistani forces have seen their efforts thwarted by resistance fighters, roadside bombs, but bad weather and the need to manage the displaced who have fled the fighting.
"What is frustrating is the lack of evidence on measures of maintenance or construction after the cleanup," says the text. It also notes "that currently, there seems to be no clear path to defeat the insurgency in Pakistan, despite the unprecedented deployment of more than 147,000 soldiers." The report notes, however, a good military cooperation between Islamabad and Washington, despite the case of a member of the American CIA which has caused considerable tension between the two countries.
Charged with two killings in Pakistan in January, he was finally released cons "blood money" in mid-March, that is to say, a financial compensation to victims' families under Islamic law. Washington has long called for decisive action against the Taliban hiding in the tribal areas bordering Afghanistan which contribute to insecurity on both sides of the border.
Thus, a double bombing has killed 41 people, Sunday, April 3, in a Sufi shrine in eastern Pakistan. The same text points to a recent surge in Afghanistan the number of attacks on civilians and in particular not only the international forces. "The increased use of Taliban murders and intimidation tactics reflects an insurgency that is under pressure from a more sustained military campaign by the coalition," the report observes that tracks the strategy unveiled by President Barack Obama in December 2009.
"There are also indications of confidence that the Taliban still feel about their strategy and resources. And heavy fighting should begin this spring," note the authors. The administration says Obama since late 2010 that its new strategy, which included sending 30,000 additional troops, has paid off but that progress is "fragile and precarious", a formulation echoed by the new report .
This text note in particular that absenteeism and losses continue to weigh on the effectiveness of the Afghan security forces. The Wall Street Journal reports, for its part, the return of Al-Qaeda in eastern Afghanistan. However, NATO plans to transfer, by the end of 2014, responsibility for security throughout the country to the army and Afghan police, that his troops are now forming.
The United States, which counts 97,000 men in Afghanistan have announced they would begin withdrawing its troops in July 2011 as promised by Obama in December 2009, without however specifying the size.
