Biden rebuked by Pakistani officials for calling nuclear-armed country 'one of the most dangerous nations'

Is there anyone Biden won't piss off?
Every foreign policy move made by Biden has destabilized the world. Every little bit of diplomatic progress around the world has been botched by Biden's war talk. Every diplomatic conference hosted by the United States has been overshadowed by Biden's dire predictions, threats, and war talk. The Summit of the Americas was overshadowed by Biden's exclusions, warnings, and threats. The US-Pacific Island Summit was overshadowed by Biden's dire predictions and threats of war. The GCC +3 Summit in the Middle East was overshadowed by Biden's warnings and threats. Biden even pissed off France with his botching of the AUKUS agreement.
Biden is a provocateur and not a peace maker. Biden goads, provokes, and destabilizes regions with talk of war. Biden will sell all the arms and munitions he can but Biden won't commit to being there. Biden doesn't encourage and celebrate cooperation. Biden magnifies any little disagreement into a major threat of conflict. Biden will gaslight, provoke, and threaten but Biden won't negotiate. Biden tries to start a fight at every opportunity and then blames everyone else when the fighting breaks out.
Biden is not a warrior. Biden is not a peace maker. Biden is only a troublemaker.
Pakistan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs summoned the U.S. ambassador on Saturday to express their "disappointment and concern" after President Joe Biden called Pakistan "one of the most dangerous nations in the world."
The president made the remark at a fundraiser for the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee in Los Angeles while discussing Chinese President Xi Jinping.
"This is a guy who understands what he wants but has an enormous, enormous array of problems. How do we handle that? How do we handle that relative to what's going on in Russia? And what I think is maybe one of the most dangerous nations in the world: Pakistan. Nuclear weapons without any cohesion," Biden said at the event, according to a transcript posted by the White House.
Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said that his country takes nuclear safety measures "with the utmost seriousness."
"Pakistan is a responsible nuclear state and we are proud that our nuclear assets have the best safeguards as per IAEA requirements," Sharif tweeted on Saturday.
Pakistan's Acting Foreign Secretary Jauhar Saleem summoned U.S. Ambassador Donald Blome on Saturday and criticized the "unwarranted remarks," saying that they "were not based on ground reality or facts."
"It was made clear that Pakistan was a responsible nuclear state and its impeccable stewardship of the nuclear program and adherence to global standards and international best practices was well acknowledged, including by the IAEA," a readout from Pakistan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs said.
Pakistani Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari told reporters that any concern about a nuclear power should be directed at India, who Pakistan has fought wars with over the disputed Himalayan region of Kashmir.
Pakistan successfully tested a nuclear weapon for the first time in 1998.
Biden won't fight. Biden won't make peace. Biden only stirs the crap and then claims he is innocent. The world won't be safe as long as Biden is allowed to meddle in foreign affairs.
The truly sad part is some idiot will come along and defend this fool.
"Nobody fucks with a Biden."
To be fair, Pakistan is home to a lot of criminals and terrorists. That is where we found Osama bin Laden, after all. Pakistan, which has had nuclear weapons since the late 90s, has been a safe haven for both Al Qaeda and the Taliban. The prospect of a nuclear weapon falling into the hands of some terrorist group is a genuine concern.
Now, having conceded all that, is it necessary to say it out loud at a political fundraiser? I can't imagine why. I would bet that the number of people either voting or donating money based on Biden's "frank talk" about Pakistan is probably close to zero.
And would such talk tend to undermine any opportunity at building a more productive relationship with Pakistan? Of course, it would. So it's hard to see any benefit to even bringing it up.
Diplomacy .... shotgun Joe style.
That's precisely what Biden wants people to do. Biden only stirred the cesspool to provoke. Biden tries to start a dog fight and then blames the dogs for fighting.
How many countries has Pakistan invaded in the last 20 years? How many countries have they bombed? How many times were their citizens killed by drone strikes? And they didn’t respond with violence?
So exactly what is Biden’s definition of dangerous?
As he said: "Nuclear weapons without any cohesion"
On the Global Terrorism Index , Pakistan ranks #3, behind only Afghanistan and Iraq. The difference between those three countries is that Pakistan is the one that actually has nuclear weapons.
Here's a list of active terrorist groups in Pakistan . I'm no expert, but this looks like a problem. Just imagine if one of these groups got control of one of the nuclear weapons their Pakistan hosts have.
I'm gonna look up some phone numbers and sell the list to Colt's.
Yet Bush Jr, Obama, and even Trump failed to call Pakistan out on it. In fact all 3 presidents worked with Pakistan against terrorism and achieving goals in Afghanistan.
Biden is politically smarter than all of them?
