Former U.S. envoy to Afghanistan, Zalmay Khalilzad, has accused Pakistan's military of engaging in a prolonged “double game” with the United States. In a post following a rare White House meeting between former President Donald Trump and Pakistan's Army Chief Asim Munir on June 18, Khalilzad claimed that while Pakistan accepted American assistance during the war in Afghanistan, it simultaneously harbored individuals responsible for killing U.S. personnel. He further asserted that Pakistan supported both the U.S. and Al-Qaeda during the post-9/11 war on terror and continues to detain Dr. Shakil Afridi, the physician who helped locate Osama bin Laden.
