The US has said that Pakistan continues to be a safe heaven for terrorists, describing it as common threat faced by both the countries and Afghanistan.
"Extremists and the safe haven pose a challenge and the sanctuary that they continue to enjoy in Pakistan, but the Pakistani military has taken action against some of those extremist threats inside their own country," Pentagon Press Secretary Rear Admiral John Kirby said.
The US wanted to continue to work with Pakistan 'to deal with what we believe is a common challenge and a common threat faced by both our countries and by Afghanistan, as well', he said.
"It is important to remind everybody that they, too, have taken casualties in that fight, so it's a common threat. We don't always see eye-to-eye on how to address it. That remains to be the case today. But what's different today is that we have better vehicles for dialogue and cooperation with the Pakistani military that we continue to enjoy and want to and continue to improve," he said.
