President Trump has accused Pakistan of 'housing the very terrorists' that the United States is fighting. But he says that will have to change 'immediately'. He has also questioned why the United States is giving Pakistan billions in aid and military support. It's an argument that's been made before. But now other countries are also pointing to what they see as Pakistan's seeming double-speak on terrorism. Even China has signed a declaration including Pakistan-based groups on a terror list.
