Pakistan Foreign Ministry: US Shifts Responsibility to Islamabad

US shifts responsibility for its mistakes in Afghanistan, blaming Islamabad for providing asylum to the Taliban, RIA said in an interview News Pakistani Foreign Minister Khawaja Muhammad Asif.

Earlier, the United States called on Pakistani authorities to stop supporting the Taliban and take "decisive measures against the militants and terrorist groups operating from its territory."

I think the US is just trying to shift responsibility for its mistakes in Afghanistan to us.

- he said.

The minister stressed that Pakistan received over 3 millions of Afghan refugees.

As for the Taliban, they do not need us, as they control the 40% of the territory of Afghanistan and can do what they want there. But they have no shelter or any organized presence in Pakistan.

- he added.

The situation in Afghanistan has deteriorated markedly in recent months. The radical Taliban movement *, which had previously captured a large area in the rural areas of the country, launched an offensive against major cities. Also on the territory of the country, the influence of the Islamic State terrorist group * increased.

Pakistan will soon be completely out of the Yankees' orbit, the attraction of China is becoming stronger. For Afghanistan, the Taliban regime would not be the worst option, given everything that happens there.

That Turkey criticizes the United States, now Pakistan ... If also the German Chancellor begins, then it's time to go buy a Geiger counter.

US shift responsibility for its mistakes

It’s not customary for the Americans to correct their mistakes, they immediately begin to look for those responsible on the side

Not long ago, the United States armed and trained the same refugees from Afghanistan on Pakistani territory to fight us in the DRA. Now let them eat their fruits now in full, to bloody vomiting.

The switchman at the mericatos is ALWAYS. But didn’t Pakistan know? Or doubted? In vain, everything is painted there!

The US is simply trying to shift the blame on us for its mistakes in Afghanistan

The gap in military cooperation is already visible. The United States refused financial assistance, Pakistan is offended and is expressing new resentment. Everything against the United States is beneficial to us. With which of the "allies" Trump has not had time to quarrel?
