Jamaat-e-Islami chief Munawar Hasan has said the United States would ask Pakistan to 'do more' in return after releasing 1.6 billion dollars aid to Islamabad.
In a statement released by Jamaat, Hasan suspected that the US aid decision at this point in time was not without a motive.
According to the Nation, he said the loans from the International Monetary Fund, World Bank and other monetary assistance from the US were in fact snares of American slavery and would prove to be death warrants for Pakistan's self-reliance and economy.
He said unless Pakistan gets rid of these snares, the country's economic well-being and sovereignty would be at stake.
He said foreign loans and US aid had brought disgrace and insult to Pakistan.
