ISLAMABAD – Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting FawadChaudhry has responded back over over the reported offer of US PresidentDonald Trump.
Chaudhry on Thursday reaffirmed the importance of bilateral relationsbetween Pakistan and United States for peace in Afghanistan and regionalstability.
The information minister was responding to President Donald Trump’s earlierstatement in which he reportedly looked forward to meeting with the “newPakistani leadership”. Trump told his cabinet members in the same meetingthat he has ended $ 1.3 billion in aid to Pakistan because “this SouthAsian country houses enemies”.
Chaudhry tweeted that “Pakistan’s peace is linked to Afghanistan and itsprosperity and the US holds an important role in this regard. Betterrelations with America will supplement regional peace”.
“If the US recognises Pakistan’s significance and the sacrifices it hasmade in the war [against terror] and extends an olive branch then theserelations are expected to improve further”, he asserted.

This is an interesting development as Trump and Prime Minister Imran Khanhad a verbal scuffle on Twitter last November after Trump, in a TVinterview, defended cutting aid to Islamabad and also suggested thatPakistani authorities knew Osama bin Laden’s location prior to his killingby US troops in a raid inside Pakistan in 2011.
Pakistan has, however, denied supporting Afghan Taliban and aiding formeral Qaeda leader bin Laden.
“Instead of making Pakistan a scapegoat for their failures, the US shoulddo a serious assessment of why, despite 140000 NATO troops plus 250,000Afghan troops & reportedly $1 trillion spent on the war in Afghanistan, theTaliban today are stronger than before,” Khan had tweeted in response.
