PM Imran Gives A Befitting Reply To President Trump’s Statement

[Pakistansdefender]

Or may be it is the chronic and severe power shortages that caused industry to look elsewhere?



If Pakistan does not regard the Taliban as a problem, then it is certainly correct in saying so and acting accordingly.

There was enough power to give it to industry.
The major problem then was a huge circular debt. Which resulted due to this war.
When Bombings started right left and center in last 2 years of musharaf he was not able to control the situation and the investment which could have gone in new plants never came due to the public environment.

Solid response. Let that orange b!tch know in clear language where we stand.

The circular debt in the power sector is due to people and organizations not paying for the power they use in a timely manner, and not due to the war.

Slap this joker known as trump.

We Americans are ashamed of this clown.

 

[Chakar The Great]

Loved it....

This is the leadership Pakistan needs.

The immediate goals were to get OBL and dismantle AlQaida, both achieved. The longer term goals are to stabilize the area so that such an organization cannot arise there to attack USA again, in progress, and very difficult (perhaps not achievable?).

That's the official narrative, and not the real reason.

 

[Hakikat ve Hikmet]

IK faces the same dilemma as Jinnah had with Nehru!!!! They are like Peter Pan - doesn't learn anything new or unlearn what he has already learnt...

Anyway, a good response!!!! Looks like IK isn't like the fellow who kisses the dagger that approaches toward his throat...

As for the US policy makers, it's time for the troops to go home....

Pakistan sold it's strategic position and gave Afghanistan on a platter to India for peanuts. That was thanks to that scumbag Musharaf. Objectively speaking this was the best deal USA ever got for few $ billion and for Pakistan was the worse deal in recent times for which we are paying and will continue to pay.

However, the US bottom line shows 1T$ borrowed from some "nasty" folks!!!! And, no progress in Afganistan!!!! And, it's a bottom-less basket case with no road blocks on this highway to hell....

Diplomacy is not conducted on twitter. The best way to deal with Trump is to ignore him.

In that past you never replied to whatever USA alleged...not just USA, rather even its pet India and Pakistani govt kept mum about it so what this policy has got Pakistan into?
It's of paramount significance to speak up and let the world know your side of story instead of getting bullied. IK used facts and no derogatory words so it is all fine. In this world, it is better to die fighting for the right cause instead of dying silently without making a single splash.

 

[FuturePAF]

The circular debt in the power sector is due to people and organizations not paying for the power they use in a timely manner, and not due to the war.

If this is the case, can the consumers be tracked down and forced to pay. The nation can't afford to subsidize at least those that can afford to pay. For those that can't we need to find ways to provide electricity at a rate and in enough amount that they can afford.

 

[PradoTLC]

nice one!

 

[War Thunder]

There were thousands of deaths in USA too, please do not forget. And if you wanted to shoot RD, why did not you not? Why did the Director ISI escort him to the airport despite him being on the ECL?

Yes and those thousands of deaths were created by your mother Zion, not by some little arabs trained in the caves.
The European commission and even the engineers associations of USA have rejected the official reports that the WTC could collapse the way it did without a planned and structured demolition through demolition charges present at the base of things.

I'm pretty sure you are one of those low IQ folk living in America who even believes the Pearl Harbor was done by the Japs and was not a false flag.

Like I said, get some intellect going mate and step out of your self inflicted imprisonment of your mind.
Try and think freely for once, and yes that happens when you are able to think with images that do not originate from memory....try it some time...

 

[maithil]

Took the bait ? That too while IMF negotiations are still on. Very well played.

 

[Saleet]

I think IK needs to show maturity here by not responding such a way any more .. Stay away from this dirty blame game and let foreign ministry respond. Trump is in habit barking and he will continue this way and IK has bigger issues.

 

[Champion_Usmani]

Setting the record straight, Mushahid Husaain Syed was first to respond to Donald Trump, and the nice thing is that govt and opposition are united at this issue...

Trump is a liar, plain and simple:
33b USD? Trump misquotes a report from the Congressional Research Service which lists the aid but clearly states that:

'This figure doesn't include actual dispersed funds. This figure is a sum of $19 billion in security and economic aid and an additional $14.59 billion from the Coalition Support Fund (CSF), which reimburses US allies for logistical and military support.

However, since 2001, according to USAID, the US has only given Pakistan $14.79 billion in civilian and military aid, and funds from the CSF have periodically been revised, delayed or blocked.'

Pakistan has suffered between 68,000 and 70,000 deaths and conservative cost forecasts list the financial losses at $68billion USD, this figure doesn't include capital flight, loss to local economy or cost of rebuilding infrastructure.

In 2017 the GLOBAL PEACE INDEX independent report on global terrorism reported:
Despite being placed in the five most impacted countries by terrorism in the world, Pakistan has shown positive results of its efforts to combat terrorism

“The reduction in deaths from terrorism is in part attributable to Operation Zarb-e-Azb by the Pakistani Army; a military effort which started in mid-2014,”

I have been tweeting and sharing the concrete results of military action in Pakistan from 2008 to present and last year's stats paint a different picture than the one Trump paints on Twitter and on T.V.:

The Pakistan Security Report 2017 cites: The internal security situation improved further in 2017 with a 16 percent decrease in the number of terrorist attacks in Pakistan, compared to previous year.

In addition to the ongoing air and ground operations against the Taliban and associated militant networks in the North Waziristan Agency, the Pakistani army began digging a 10 feet wide by 8 feet deep trench spanning some 480km along the Afghan/Pakistan border at the Chaman border crossing in Baluchistan Province.[1]

Trump needs to remind his country to DO MORE in Afghanistan:
