The U.S. is withholding more than $250-million of foreign aid to Pakistan. U.S. Ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley accused the government of Pakistan of "playing a double-game for years," working with the U.S. at times, while also harboring terrorist groups that attack American troops in Afghanistan.
She said the decision had nothing to do with Pakistan's opposition to President Trump's Jerusalem announcement last month.
On Monday, Trump took to Twitter, accusing Pakistani leaders of "lies and deceit" and taking U.S. leaders for "fools."
