The US has expressed that Pakistan would demonstrate its willingness to aggressively confront terror groups that operate from its soil, amid reports that Islamabad has suspended intelligence cooperation with America after the Trump administration froze military aid to it.
Pakistan’s decision to suspend military and intelligence cooperation with America came after President Donald Trump accused Islamabad of giving nothing to the US but “lies and deceit” and suspended about $2 billion in security aid to it, Pakistani media quoted Defence Minister Khurram Dastgir Khan as saying.
Pakistan has suspended military and intelligence cooperation with the US in the wake of US President Donald Trump’s allegations against the country, Khan said while addressing a gathering at Institute of Strategic Studies in Islamabad. Speaking during a seminar titled ‘Contours of Security Environment of Pakistan’, Khan said the US was using Pakistan as a “scapegoat” for its failures in war-torn Afghanistan.
“Pakistan does not want to put a price on its sacrifices but wants them to be recognised,” he was quoted as saying by a daily.
