WASHINGTON, March 3: US Vice President Dick Cheney on Wednesday said the US "works very closely" with Pakistan. He was responding to a question in an interview with MSNBC.
Asked if the US had information that Osama bin Laden was on the Pakistan side of the border, would US forces go and get him, Cheney said he would not want to speculate.
"We work very closely with our friends in Pakistan. There are Pakistani forces on their side of the border; US forces working in Afghanistan, alongside forces from many other nations.
And the fact is it's in everybody's interest that we capture Osama. And we'll continue to work with our friends and allies in the region and intelligence services, military forces, law enforcement personnel - whatever it takes, ultimately - to run him to ground." He said "I think we will get Osama. I've always believed that." -APP
