LAHORE: The Washington administration was blaming Pakistan once again to hide its defeat in Afghanistan, said Pakistan Justice and Democratic Party chief Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry on Thursday.

In a press release issued here, the former chief justice said that the US administration must bear it in its mind that Pakistan is a nuclear state and it would not succumb to its pressure tactics at all.

He said the Pakistani nation offered the most sacrifices in the war against terrorism, both in men and material. He said only a strong Pakistan could guarantee a stable South Asia. Condemning the fresh statements by US President Donald Trump and other officials, he warned the USA not to repeat the past mistakes.
