中国日报网站消息：巴基斯坦官员表示，该国至少两个军事基地可以供美军使用。
据《纽约时报》最新报道，这名官员所指的两个基地位于伯斯尼和亚各布阿巴德。前者是一个港口城市，那里有一个小型机场；后者设有一个空军基地。
他还预计，2000至3000名美国士兵将进驻这些军事基地。

Canadian soldiers took the product to Iraq during the Gulf War. It has since been refined and sold to the military in Australia, Ireland and the Netherlands. The American military, which uses a less effective absorbent powder, is also looking into buying it, the report said.
