Pakistan doesn’t want to be treated like hired guns: Imran Khan to US

New Delhi, Dec 07 (ANI): Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan has said that his country would never share a relationship with the United States, if the latter continues to treat the Islamic country as its “hired gun”. In his first foreign interview to the Washington Post, the newly-elected Pakistan Prime Minister said that Islamabad would never accept money to fight someone else’s war as it not only costs human lives but also puts the dignity of a country at stake. “I would never want to have a relationship where Pakistan is treated like a hired gun — given money to fight someone else’s war. We should never put ourselves in this position again. It not only cost us human lives, the devastation of our tribal areas, but it also cost us our dignity. We would like a proper relationship with the US,” Khan said. Khan’s statement came in the wake of constant allegations from the US officials that Pakistan has been harbouring terrorists in its soil. Replying to the presence of Taliban in Pakistan, Khan said that there are no sanctuaries in Pakistan for terror outfits.
