ISLAMABAD: Pakistan said on Wednesday that its move to expel hundreds of thousands of undocumented Afghans was a response to the unwillingness of the Taliban-led administration to act against militants using Afghanistan to carry out attacks in Pakistan.
“After non-cooperation by the Afghan interim government, Pakistan has decided to take matters into its own hands - and Pakistan’s recent actions are neither unexpected or surprising,” Caretaker Prime Minister Anwar ul Haq Kakar told journalists.
A spokesman for the Taliban administration did not immediately respond to a request for comment. They have previously denied the accusations.
