The US has said that Pakistan remains a safe harbor for regionally focused terrorist groups. In its annual Country Reports on Terrorism, US State Department said Pakistan is one of the countries that figures in terrorist safe havens list.
It said, Pakistan allows terror groups such as Lashkar e-Taiba (LeT) and Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) to operate from its territory and target India. The US said, Islamabad did not take action against terrorists such as JeM founder and UN-designated terrorist Masood Azhar believed to remain free in Pakistan.
