The United States has provided Pakistan, a key ally in the war on terror, more than $10.5 billion for military, economic, and development activities. Pakistan's Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA), which border Afghanistan, are vast unpoliced regions attractive to extremists and terrorists seeking a safe haven. GAO was asked to assess (1) the progress in meeting these national security goals for Pakistan's FATA, and (2) the status of U.S. efforts to develop a comprehensive plan for the FATA. To address these objectives, GAO compared national security goals against assessments conducted by U.S. agencies and reviewed available plans. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-08-622/html/GAOREPORTS-GAO-08-622.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-08-622/pdf/GAOREPORTS-GAO-08-622.pdf GAO-08-622 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-GAO-08-622 Other Written Product GAO-08-622; Combating Terrorism: The United States Lacks Comprehensive Plan to Destroy the Terrorist Threat and Close the Safe Haven in Pakistan's Federally Administered Tribal Areas; Combating terrorism Counterterrorism Defense capabilities Embassies Federal intelligence agencies Foreign financial assistance Foreign governments Foreign military assistance Homeland security Interagency relations International cooperation International organizations International relations Military intelligence National defense operations Program evaluation Program management Public diplomacy Security investigations Security policies Security threats Strategic planning Terrorism Security operations program goals or objectives Foreign countries Federally Administered Tribal Areas (Pakistan) Public Law 108-458 Public Law 110-53
