Islamabad [Pakistan], July 10 (ANI): Despite remaining on the "grey list" of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), Pakistan is less worried about the UN-designated terror groups living on its territory amid the US troop withdrawal from neighbouring Afghanistan.
The terrorist groups against whose leaders and commanders Pakistan is supposed to take action include the Afghan Taliban, Haqqani Network, Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM), Jamaat-ud-Dawah (JuD), Falah-e-Insaniyat Foundation and al Qaeda and Islamic State.
Fabien Baussart in Times of Israel said in his blog that Pakistan must be "hoping" that the FATF's insistence on investigating and prosecuting leaders of terror groups living on Pakistani territory does not clash with the role it wants in influencing the future of Afghanistan.
