ISLAMABAD: National Security Committee meeting was called by Prime Minister Khaqan Abbasi. Abbasi is chairing the meeting today in which a plan will be devised in response to US revised policies.

This meeting will be attended by top military and civil officials.

The first Cabinet meeting was held by PM on Wednesday in response to Trump’s “anti-Pakistan” comments in his speech.  In the meeting it was decided that Pakistan will contact other countries and will take stakeholders in confidence in response to the revised US policy.
