ISLAMABAD: Former foreign minister, Hina Rabbani Khar, has called for debate in the Parliament over US President Donald Trump’s fresh tirade against Pakistan, ARY News reported on Tuesday.
In a statement, the Pakistan People’s Party lawmaker said the government must not take a step back in response to the US president’s mud-slinging against Pakistan.
Similarly, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz leader Khawaja Saad Rafique also apparently expressed his approval to the rejoinder given by Prime Minister Khan to Trump on Twitter.
Rafique refrained from using any word and instead he posted a thumbs-up sign in response to PM Khan’s tweet.
Prime Minister Imran Khan castigated Trump, saying Pakistan had suffered enough in the US war on terror and now it would do what was best for its people.
Khan said the US president’s false assertions added insult to the injury Pakistan had suffered in the US war on terror in terms of lives lost and destabilised and economic costs.
“He needs to be informed about historical facts. Pakistan has suffered enough fighting US’s war. Now we will do what is best for our people and our interests,” he said.
In his latest tweet the US president alleged that America paid Pakistan billions of dollars and they never told them that Osama was living there.
“Of course we should have captured Osama Bin Laden long before we did. I pointed him out in my book just BEFORE the attack on the World Trade Center. President Clinton famously missed his shot. We paid Pakistan Billions of Dollars & they never told us he was living there. Fools!
