On Sunday in an interview US President Barack Obama said that the United States would give Pakistan the tools it needed to defeat 'al Qaeda' but expected some accountability in return.
"One of the concerns that we've had building up over the last several years is a notion, I think, among the average Pakistani, that this is somehow America's war and they are not invested," Obama told CBS's "Face the Nation."
"What we want to do is say to the Pakistani people - you are our friends, you are our allies. We are going to give you the tools to defeat al Qaeda and to root out these safe havens, but we also expect some accountability," he said.
