US bid to put Pakistan on global terror watch-list fails


The United States (US) has failed to find partners in its bid to put Pakistan on the global terror financing watch-list during an ongoing conference in Paris. The meeting was due to vote on a US motion to put Pakistan on the global terror watch-list. But, Foreign Minister Khawaja Asif said early on Wednesday that the US has failed in its bid against Pakistan. In a tweet, Asif has said that Pakistan’s efforts have paid off, and the Paris conference has deferred voting for three months. He said that there was ‘no consensus on nominating Pakistan for the list’ and that he was ‘grateful to the friends who helped’ in the process.
