WASHINGTON: The United States said Tuesday it has added Pakistan to its blacklist of countries that violate religious freedom, ramping up pressure over its treatment of minorities.



Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said he had designated Pakistan among “countries of particular concern” in a congressionally mandated annual report, a year after the State Department put Pakistan on a watchlist without legal consequences.


“On November 28, 2018, I designated Burma, China, Eritrea, Iran, North Korea, Pakistan, Sudan, Saudi Arabia, Tajikistan, and Turkmenistan, as countries of particular concern under the International Religious Freedom Act of 1998 for having engaged in or tolerated ”systematic, ongoing, [and] egregious violations of religious freedom,” the US State Department press release on religious freedom designations reads.

Are we supposed to feel bad now?

The Americans are slowly, but surely moving towards a non-existent relationship. I like such desperate moves by the enemy. It means that things are not going well for 'Murica.
Don't worry buddy we have China.
 
Talking of Black list...How the US are kiling and discriminating their black and brown people for the last 400 years? There should be a "Black" list for that too?
