UK Adds Pakistan to its List of High-Risk Countries
NEW DELHI (WION) – The UK government has added Pakistan to the list of undesirable 21 high-risk countries with unsatisfactory money laundering and terrorist financing controls.
In a move that could jeopardise Pakistan’s chances of getting off the FATF grey list, the UK on Sunday added the country to its list of 21 "high risk countries" for money laundering and terrorist financing.
The UK added Pakistan to its list as part of the Amendment of the Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing and Transfer of Funds (Information on the Payer) Regulations 2021. The regulations came into force on 26 March.

I wonder how much Indian immigrants paid Borris Johnson to get this move. The number one country to fund terrorism is India but they are never bothered.

Instead of Afghanistan, we should have invaded Pakistan. That shithole is the source of our troubles. Al-Qaeda/Taliban come from there. Pakistan should be broken up into three different countries, a Pashtunistan, a Balochistan and a remnant of Pakistan in the south which is Dravidian.

Why so much hatred towards Pakistan? Really, why? You are a christian, aren’t you? We believe in the same unique God, while the hindus believe in a multitude of ridiculous gods. We should unite against them instead of fighting each other.

Pakistan is essentially a no-go zone that serves as a safe haven for all kinds of traffickers, drugs, arms, slaves. These gangsters also sell their services to foreign powers to wage war by proxy.

Great Britain has grown from a small, insignificant island to a great power through maritime piracy. Indeed, they have not changed, they are still pirates of the Caribbean.

The USA should stop supporting Pakistan. Without US backing, Pakistan would collapse on its own in less than a single year.
