No double standards on terror: Roemer

Roemer said the US has been putting a great deal of pressure on Pakistan to go after safe havens in that country to target al-Qaeda leadership and other terrorist groups that might threaten Afghanistan,Pakistan,India and the US.

You see individuals from the United States government at the highest level say to the government of Pakistan You are a good partner,you are concentrating on extremism in your country,but you need to do more, he said.
