Pak-Us Relations: Aid cuts will imperil ties: Rumsfeld

Rumsfeld says aid reduction may harm Pak-US relationship.

WASHINGTON:
The US should not rush into judgment on Pakistan and resort to short-sighted measures like aid reduction that may imperil an important relationship, former US defence secretary Donald Rumsfeld said. “We ought to take a deep breath and recognise that it would make us feel good for about five minutes if we cut off aid to Pakistan,” he said in an appearance on Fox News channel.
