Washington, 9 August: The Al Qaida in Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) is seen by the US national security team as an affiliate of the Al Qaida posing greatest potential threat to the country, the White House has said.
“While, Al Qaida core and its leadership in Afghanistan and Pakistan has been decimated and
is not nearly what it was 10 years ago, Al Qaida in general and its affiliate organisations ~ as we’ve been talking about for
years now ~ continue to represent threats,” the White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said yesterday.
“And AQAP in particular is viewed by the national security team as the most operational of the Al Qaida affiliates,” he said.     PTI
