Ashraf Ghani says Pakistan's role is key part of the Trump plan
NEW YORK, Sep 22 (INP) Abolishing militant hideouts in Pakistan is critical to establishing peace in Afghanistan, Afghan President Ashraf Ghani said on Thursday before meeting US President Donald Trump on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA).
Neither Trump nor Ghani mentioned Pakistan when they appeared publicly together after their discussion. But Ghani said Pakistan's role is a key part of the Trump plan announced last month to end America's longest war and eliminate a rising extremist threat in Afghanistan.
