The United States also offered to work with Pakistan on strategies that could better assist the country’s efforts to counter all forms of violent extremism.
The US State Department Spokesperson Matthew Miller said both countries have continued to face various acts of terrorism, targeting innocent civilians.
He extended deepest sympathies for those killed and injured in recent deadly attacks in Pakistan.
He acknowledge Pakistanis had suffered tremendously from terrorist attacks.
“They deserve to practice their faith without fear. We, of course, offer condolences to families who lost loved ones and a speedy recovery to who are injured,” he added.
Miller said: “We cooperate with Pakistan in a range of multilateral fora on issues including terrorist designations and global strategies to defeat terrorist groups.”
He highlighted that earlier this year, the United States and Pakistan held a high-level counter-terrorism dialogue to discuss shared terrorist threats facing the two countries.
During these talks, the two sides discussed various strategies to cooperate in areas such as border security and terrorist financing.
“And we will continue to work with Pakistan to ensure that we can better assist Pakistan’s efforts to counter all forms of violent extremism,” he added.
