US Senate lifts sanctions on Pakistan

The United States Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Friday moved to lift sanctions against Pakistan, seen as a key ally in the US-led coalition against terrorism.

"Pakistan has chosen to stand with the United States," said Committee Chairman Senator Joe Biden.

"We need to assist this important front-line state," he added.

The measure, which passed unanimously by a voice vote, would waive a series of restrictions imposed on Pakistan following its 1999 military coup.
