Ex-New York Congressman Tom Reynolds represents Pakistan as the country seeks to improve its political and economic relationships with the US.
President Trump, who met with Pakistan prime minister Imran Khan in the Oval Office on July 21, cut the US $1.3B aid package to Pakistan last year because of ties that its intelligence services have with Islamic extremist groups.
