Pakistan has always paid the heavy price of being ally of US

SIALKOT: Foreign Minister Khawaja Asif said on Sunday that Pakistan bore the brunt in the fight against terrorism.

“We have been cooperating with the US since many years. However, Pakistan always suffered losses in its relationship with the US,” he claimed.

He also remarked that the relation between the two countries is off to a good start after a positive statement from US President Donald Trump.

However, the nature of the relationship will become clearer in a few more days after meeting with US diplomats, he shared while speaking to Geo News in Sialkot.

After Pakistan Army rescued a US-Canadian couple and their children from terrorist’s custody, Trump had tweeted in favour of the country.

Trump shared, “Starting to develop a much better relationship with Pakistan and its leaders. I want to thank them for their cooperation on many fronts.”

On October 12, the Pakistan Army recovered five foreign hostages who were kidnapped in Afghanistan in 2012, said a statement released by the Army's media wing.
