Pelosi: President's Comprehensive Strategy for Afghanistan and Pakistan is Right Plan to Protect Americans
March 27, 2009Speaker Nancy Pelosi issued the following statement in support of President Obama's new strategy for Afghanistan and Pakistan: "I support President Obama's comprehensive strategy for Afghanistan and Pakistan. The President's plan is the result of a detailed study and is wisely centered on dismantling al Qaeda and denying safe havens in both Afghanistan and Pakistan to those who would attack the United States. This strategy recognizes a point that I have emphasized for years, and one that I shared with the President following my visit last month to Afghanistan, which is that we must have a regional approach to countering terrorism."
