Pakistan is using Haqqani network!
In order to maintain Pakistan's status as a major non-NATO ally, the bill requires the US President to issue a certification that Pakistan has failed to arrest and prosecute members of the Haqqani Network. It has shown progress and taken steps to demonstrate its commitment to preventing the Haqqani Network from using any Pakistani territory as a sanctuary.
Both the situations are being seen as a major challenge for Pakistan, as many in the US consider the Haqqani network to be an important branch of the ISI. The bill also seeks certification from the US President that Pakistan actively coordinates with Afghanistan to restrict the activities of terrorists from organizations such as the Haqqani Network near the Afghanistan-Pakistan border.
