Donald Trump suspended in 2018 as Trump accused Pakistan of offering “nothing but lies and deceit” when he canceled a crucial Coalition Support Fund for Islamabad. The cancellation of the aid may have cost Pakistan billions of dollars in military and civilian aid over the last two years – something that pinched Islamabad hard at a time of financial crunch.
