December 22, 2017

KABUL, Dec 22 (INP) US Vice President Mike Pence made an unannounced trip to Afghanistan to meet its leaders and underscore America's commitment to the country four months after President Donald Trump agreed to an open-ended war against insurgents here. In an apparent warning to Pakistan during his surprise visit to Afghanistan, Pence said; "Pakistan has much to gain from partnering with our efforts in Afghanistan. The days to shelter terrorists have gone. It has much to lose by continuing to harbour terrorists." INP/AH
