Senate Minority leader Mitch McConnell says the United States

should not isolate Pakistan, but would not say commit to a call from some politicians for Congress to cut aid to the nation, according to
Politico.
“Pakistan is very much a mixed bag,” McConnell said on Fox News Sunday. “I don’t think completely pulling back in Pakistan is a good idea.”
McConnell also said it was a mistake for President Barack Obama to call on Israel to make its 1967 borders the starting point for peace negotiations.
