“We have very long relations with the United States and we had our ups andmassive downs, but seeing objectively, as we increased seriously ourcounterterrorism efforts in the beginning of 2014, the military support ofthe United States began to come down. [The] more we ramp ourcounterterrorism efforts [the] more thelink> link>link>USlink>support is on the decline.

We keep telling our American friends that if you are serious about fightingterrorism, you would actually be increasingly supportive of Pakistan inthese efforts, but they have a different opinion from this. We hope thatthe Americans will modify their approach,” Khan said on the sidelines ofthe Moscow Conference on International Security (MCIS).
