Pakistan has dragged India into its war of words with the US, now accusing New Delhi of "lies and deceit", much in the manner Donald Trump accused Islamabad of the same, reported The Express Tribune.
Pakistan's foreign minister Khawaja Asif said the US is "trumpeting India's lies and deceit", that the two countries have a "nexus" and that the US "is speaking the language of Indians".
"The United States and India have a nexus, they understand their interests are same in the region," said Asif, in an interview with Geo TV yesterday.
These comments by Asif followed similar sentiments he expressed earlier in the day, at a meeting with the country's national security committee. At the meeting, Pakistani officials discussed responses to US President Donald Trump's New Year's Day tweet in which he accused Pakistan of "lies and deceit" and of playing America for "a fool".
