Washington: Former US Defense Secretary James Mattis wrote in his latest book ‘Call Sign Chaos: Learning to Lead’ that “Of all the countries I’ve known, I consider Pakistan to be the most dangerous”.
“This is a much worse problem, I think than anyone is writing about today,” he said at an event on Tuesday. He asserted, “We can’t have the fastest-growing nuclear arsenal in the world falling into the hands of the terrorists breeding in their midst. The result would be disastrous.”
Mattis is known for his long years of experience in dealing with Pakistan and South Asia. He was a top US Marine Corps Commandeer in Afghanistan, head of US Central Command and then as a secretary of defence.
He also remarked on Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan’s visit to White House with US President Donald Trump. “It’s a very twisted relationship” between Pakistan and the US, said Mattis.
