President Donald Trump, while appearing a joint appearance with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi at a large rally, Monday said the United States has “very good” relations with Pakistan and both countries are working in a positive way to counter terrorists.
“Our relationship with Pakistan is a very good one. Thanks to these efforts, we are beginning to see signs of big progress with Pakistan and we are hopeful for reduced tensions, greater stability and the future of harmony for all of the nations of South Asia,” President Trump said.
Trump spoke in the context of efforts to tamp down terrorists.
“The U.S. and India are committed to stopping terrorists and fight their ideology. For this reason, since taking office, my administration is working in a very positive way with Pakistan to crack down on terrorist organisations and militants which operate on the Pakistani border,” the U.S. president added.
