WASHINGTON (Pajhwok): Afghanistan requires attention in the fight against the Islamic State, US President-elect Donald Trunp’s nominee for the secretary of state said on Wednesday.
Rex Tillerson, who is also Exxon chief executive officer, said the fight against Daesh would be one of the top priorities for the incoming president.
“The most urgent step in thwarting radical Islam is defeating ISIS. The Middle East and its surrounding regions pose many challenges which require our attention, including Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan,” he said.
