ISLAMABAD: The federal government is in the process of consultation with all stakeholders to prepare a detailed response to the United States President Donald Trump’s recent statement in which he denounced “Pakistan’s safe havens for terrorist organisations”, sources in the Foreign Office revealed on Tuesday.

The Trump administration has ratcheted up pressure on Pakistan to make sure its soil is not used to plan and conduct terrorist attacks against its neighbours – a charge often levelled by India and Afghanistan.

“There is nothing new in President Trump’s speech,” a senior government official who did not wish to be named told The Express Tribune. “Pakistan has destroyed and eliminated the terror infrastructure from its soil therefore repeating the demand of ‘do more’ is not going to work.”

Trump backs off Afghan withdrawal, slams Pakistan for ‘harbouring terrorists’

In his first formal address to the Americans as commander-in-chief on Monday, Trump cleared the way for the deployment of thousands more US troops to Afghanistan, backtracking from his promise to swiftly end America’s longest war. He also said the US wanted India to help more with Afghanistan, especially in the areas of economic assistance and development.

Commenting on the US president’s backing of India to play a role in the economic development in Afghanistan, the FO official said it did not make any sense as India was not an economic power that could contribute for the prosperity of Afghanistan. “How can a country which is struggling to deal with abject poverty help others?” the official questioned.

The official, however, agreed that a detailed response will only be issued after consultations have been carried out with all relevant stakeholders. Trump’s announcement came amid a month of serious turmoil for his administration, which has seen several top White House officials fired and revelations that members of Trump’s campaign are being investigated by a federal grand jury.

I stayed up watching his speech and it was a direct threat to Pakistan. Every single failure in AFG was blamed upon Pakistan yet hardly any mention of Pakistan making full efforts to secure its side of the border by countless militery operations. Trump wants to plunge Pakistan in an never endin war in AFG. Gen Bajwa and the political establishment must make some serious decisions to move away from the Americans. America is hell bent on occupations AFG indefinitely.

What will be the detailed response? Same old words that we are fighting well.it doesn't make any sense now.america put all blame on us and we only telling them we are doing good.this is like a slavery.we must teach Americans a lesson.let talibans target Americans inside afghanistan.stop all this nato routes.ask Russia to join afghanistan.give talibans hand held missiles.let them bleed.

 

[LeGenD]

I am sorry but I see my country landing in deep shit in coming years if things continue this way.

PML(N) has clearly failed in establishing any semblance of diplomatic relationship with Trump administration. METRO, CPEC or JAMHOORIAT kay alwa kuch nazar hi nahi aata inn chawalon ko.

You are stupid to think Trump is going to be Ally of any country. Saudi are Muslim too but he made first visit to them, just because of the fact that they are rich and will fuel his expenses. So we should rather stay neutral or away from US bloc and tell them to fight their own war in Afghanistan through India and they will see the maximize results of their total self destruction, which will be good or rather excellent for us.

Pak Should reply Trump befeting as G 8 countries did this guy is psycho don't know how to deal and let Pentagon know what Pak can do

America's solar eclipse is the bad indication because of trump & modi.

Can any your military establishment and government accomplish any one of your above wishful thoughts straight against the United States ????? Well I seriously doubt that.

And what do you mean by ask Russia to join Afghanistan ??? Do you think they are your school time playmates to jump into a conflict just because THE PAKISTAN had asked so ??? LOL

 

[ashok321]

No matter what Pakistan says or would say after compiling the reams of papers.
Uncle Sam will remain grouchy.
Why?
Haqqani network.
Thats all there is to.

The US has always been saying to Pakistan; Bhai ye Haqqani ka huka pani band karo.

The above is all a Red Herring. The Charlottesville fiasco was a massive downer for the trump administration. This is compounded by the rise of BLM, the Alt-right and Antifa. He's looking to quel the simmering racial tensions in America by uniting the public against a common enemy. On this occasion it's Pakistan. Nothing will change on the ground.

The only jumping & humping is happening in your mama's choota & ghand-hole by big strong Alpha Pakistani/Muslim lund while your papa is watching. Your mama then likes to swallow a good pint of Pakistani/Muslim juice while your papa is watching. After which your mama and papa worship Pakistani/Muslim lund. It's the reason why you and other indians are on PDF. You are all sadomasochists.

United States interest in the region is to contain and limit China, and one of the ways they can achieve this is by building up India as a power house within the region, India just like any other powers of the world also has and have had hegemonic desires and Pakistan being a power of any sort is not acceptable to the Indians because of their ambitions and because we limit their regional influence, Pakistan is also one of the closest allies to China which is unacceptable to the US.

It is because of this geo-political scenario US will and are doing their level best to weaken Pakistan and build up India militarily as much as possible, it is also the reason why they have allowed India to have a footing inside Afghanistan and RAW Indian intelligence agency is actively funding TTP terrorists against Pakistan, we have had many proof of their involvement and Ajit Doval Indian security adviser has also openly admitted funding the terrorists, it is in the interest of the US and India to see Pakistan turned into another Syria or Iraq but we are not incompetents like the Arabs, we know how to safeguard our own interest and survive and swear it we will.

US is a wolf in sheep clothes, trusting the wolf is signing your own death warrant, we have learned this the hard way.

This is laying the groundworks to attack Pakistan and neutralize our nukes. India will be the proxy. Get ready.

why bother just give him a picture of solar eclipse to stare at

PMLN have closed their eyes and ears of anything happening outside of Pakistan. They are partially responsible if any attack occurs on Pakistan.

 

[PAKISTANFOREVER]

Not happening. The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have sucked the fight and might out of the americans. Pakistan is nearly 8× bigger than Iraq and 20× more militarily powerful. If the americans suffered at the hands of the Iraqis they know what we are capable of. If they were going to atrack they would have done it by now.
