Russian Presidential Envoy to Afghanistan Zamir Kabulov lambasted Trump’s Pakistan strategy and insisted that Islamabad is “a key regional player to negotiate with.”
“Putting pressure [on Pakistan] may seriously destabilize the region-wide security situation and result in negative consequences for Afghanistan,” said Kabulov.
After the Trump administration neglected Afghanistan, both China and Russia started negotiations with Pakistan to resolve Afghan issue in Decemeber 2016.
Meanwhile Pakistan has also decided to react hard to the statements of the US President and the US Secretary of State.
