Is Pakistan at risk of losing allies over its inability or
unwillingness to control militants? Sarah Montague speaks to
Pakistan's Foreign Minister, Khawaja Asif. President Trump has
accused his country of "housing the very terrorists" that the
United States is fighting. He says that will have to change
"immediately". He has also questioned why the United States is
giving Pakistan billions in aid and military support. It is an
argument that has been made before. But now other countries are
also pointing to what they see as Pakistan's seeming double-speak
on terrorism. Even China has signed a declaration including
Pakistan-based groups on a terror list.
