Pakistan summons US envoy over Trump's comments
[Al Jazeera] Pakistain has summoned a high-ranking diplomat from the United States to lodge a strong protest against President Donald Trump...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... 's "unwarranted and unsubstantiated" criticism of Islamabad's role in the Washington-led "war on terror". Pakistain's Foreign Secretary Tehmina Janjua called in the US Chargé d'Affaires (US CdA) Paul Jones to the foreign office in the capital, Islamabad, on Tuesday, after Trump alleged that Pakistain "don't do a damn thing" for the US while defending his decision to cut hundreds of millions of dollars in military aid to the country. "Conveying her government’s disappointment on the recent tweets and comments by the US president, the US CdA was told that such baseless rhetoric about Pakistain was totally unacceptable," Pakistain's foreign office said in a statement. "The foreign secretary told the US CdA that no other country had paid a heavier price than Pakistain in the fight against terrorism," the statement added. Posted by: Fred 2018-11-21 |
