Economic aid to Pak linked to its "ability to confront extremism"

“Stating that the rapid expansion of the Taliban in Pakistan is very "disturbing", the US on Friday said the Obama Administration's proposed economic aid to Islamabad would be directly linked to its "ability to confront extremism.”

 

“While announcing the new Af-Pak policy last month, Obama had said that Pakistan should no longer expect blank checks from the US and thatIslamabad would be made accountable for the money it would receive from the US.”

 

The US administration is clearly worried about the developments in Af-Pak, as perthis article.

Update: It's the terrorism, stupid; not India: US message to Pak, vide this article.
