Pakistan has complied with UN sanctions on terrorist groups: UN official

UNITED NATIONS, Dec 23 (APP): A senior United Nations official has said that Pakistan has “satisfactorily complied” with the UN’s sanctions on terrorist groups, a top world body official has said. Richard Barrett, Coordinator of the Security Council established al‑Qaeda and Taliban Sanctions Monitoring Committee, told CNN‑IBN television that it was difficult to implement the sanctions completely, but the UN has found all Pakistani agencies were cooperative.

The committee has the task of monitoring sanctions imposed by the Security Council on individuals and organisations declared as terrorist.

“I found in all my dealings with officials in Pakistan, whether it’s the government, elected officials, ministries or the intelligence services or the Army, and we deal with all of those bodies I found very good atmosphere of cooperation between them as well as with us,” Barrett was quoted as saying.

“It is very difficult for a state to implement that (sanctions) completely, but yes in a way Pakistani government is working to ensure fruitful compliance,” he said.

Barrett indicated that the cooperation was across the board, covering civil and military agencies and ministries. Barrett is expected to visit Islamabad soon to make an assessment of Pakistan’s actions so far and what more needed to be done.

The official had earlier said the Security Council has the power to take action against nations if they were found to be not taking action against individuals and organizations branded as terrorists.

The Pakistan Government acting after the United Nations declared the Jamaat‑ud‑Dawa a terrorist group and a front for Lashkar‑e‑Taiba has shuttered all of its offices, arrested scores of activists and put its entire leadership under house arrest.

India blames the Lashkar for the terrorist attacks on Mumbai last month that killed more than 200 people.

As long as Pakistan is a member of the UN, she must respect the UN charter and fulfill her obligations under the charter.

While it is true that the UN has many flaws, it has also done a lot of good when it has acted independently and without the influence of one power or the other.

Glad that atleast some in the UN are keeping a level head, though I heard the Indian EA ministry threw a fit over these comments. Hopefully they aren't taken back under pressure.
