United States President, Barack Obama, has said that he would launch an operation similar to the one which killed Osama Bin Laden if another militant leader was found in Pakistan.
Speaking to the BBC ahead of a European visit, President Obama said the US was mindful of Pakistani sovereignty, but it could not allow "active plans to come to fruition without the US taking action".
The killing of Bin Laden by US forces in a Pakistani garrison town on May 2 strained ties between the two allies.
