Washington: US special envoy to Pakistan and Afghanistan Marc Grossman said that militants would only hold talks after military pressure.

Speaking to Geo News Grossman said US President Obama’s fundamental goal in Afghanistan was to destroy Al-Qaeda.

Grossman added that it was important for Americans to recognise the sacrifices Pakistan had made in the war on terror. “The US and others are asking Pakistan to defeat terrorism and condemn terrorist groups” he said.
