Description

Since 2002, destroying the terrorist threat and closing safe havens have been key national security goals. As of May 2008, the U.S. had provided Pakistan, a key ally in the war on terror, more than $10 billion in funds and assistance. Pakistan's Federally Administered Tribal Areas' (FATA) rugged terrain, poor economic conditions, low literacy, underdeveloped infrastructure, and unique legal structure, all add to the complexity of efforts to address the terrorist threat in the FATA. This testimony discusses the: (1) progress of U.S. national security goals in the FATA as of May 2008; (2) status of U.S. efforts to develop a comprehensive plan; and (3) oversight of U.S. Coalition Support Funds provided to Pakistan.
