US Cancels Millions in Military Aid to Pakistan

The decision was prompted by Islamabad’s ‘lack of decisive actions’ on terror groups

The US defence department says it has decided to cancel $300 million dollars in military aid to Pakistan because it has failed to act against militant groups. It follows another five hundred million that had already been withdrawn from the country at the start of this year.

Also in the programme: New calls for Australia to remove asylum seekers living in rough conditions from the pacific island of Nauru. And the man behind the Krautrock sound - Connie Plank - is captured on film by his son.
