“They have havens that still exist in Pakistan, not for the leaders of these organisations, but also many others, and it is the focus of this overall mission to eliminate those safe havens.

“And we do it in support of those who are executing the mission in Pakistan as obviously as well as with the continued efforts here in Afghanistan. But it is our intent and I believe that we will eliminate those safe havens as we execute this mission,” he said.

The United States of America has done many things in the fight against terrorism in Pakistan and further improvements take time, he said.
