It said, "The United States applauded Pakistan's continued successes to contain terrorist entities that pose a threat to the peace and security of the region and the world."

The statement could cause some unease in India, which faces Pakistan-trained terrorists on a regular basis in Jammu and Kashmir. New Delhi has successfully argued its case in the United Nations and got designated several individuals and entities in Pakistan listed as terrorists.

Meanwhile, the statement read that the US and Pakistan reaffirmed their shared commitment to combating terrorism in all its forms and manifestations. Both delegations underscored the critical importance of developing effective approaches to terrorist threats, including those posed by Balochistan Liberation Army, ISIS-Khorasan, and Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan. The US expressed condolences for the loss of civilians and members of law enforcement agencies in terrorist incidents in Pakistan.
