US will freeze the aid to the Pakistan
UNITED STATES: To freeze all US aid to Pakistan, a key American lawmaker from Texas has introduced a resolution in the House of Representative.
The House Resolution (No HR 3013) if passed will freeze all US aid to Pakistan with the exception of funds that are designated to help secure nuclear weapons.
Congressman Ted Poe in a statement after tabling the resolution in the House on Friday said, “Since the discovery of Osama bin Laden in Abbottabad, Pakistan has proven to be disloyal, deceptive and a danger to the United States.”
“This so-called ally continues to take billions in US aid, while at the same time supports the militants who attack us.
“The United States must immediately freeze all aid to Pakistan,” said Poe, who is a member of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.
Pakistan has made it “painfully obvious” that they will continue their policy of “duplicity and deceit” by pretending to be US ally in the war on terror while simultaneously promoting violent extremism, the Congressman said.
Mike Mullen, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, just this month the Pakistani government supported the groups who were behind both the truck bomb attack that wounded more than 70 US and NATO Troops and the attack on the US Embassy, Poe said.
