US working with donors to supply electricity to Pakistan
The United States is working with international donors to realise supply of electricity from energy-rich Central Asian region to Afghanistan and Pakistan, a senior US official said Tuesday. Richard Boucher, the top US official for South Asia, told a Congressional hearing that trade in electricity can benefit both sides, providing "much-needed energy to South Asia and serving as a major source of future revenue for the countries of Central Asia."
