The British prime minister has insulted the Pakistani government by claiming that Islamabad has been "exporting terror".

Speaking on a trip to India, David Cameron said Islamabad was now facing isolation in the international community because it had supported extremist groups.

Mr Cameron accused Islamabad of publicly condemning the Taliban while secretly supporting Afghan militants.

Speaking in Bangalore, Cameron said: "We cannot tolerate in any sense the idea that Pakistan is allowed to look both ways and is able, in any way, to promote the export of terror, whether to India or whether to Afghanistan or anywhere else in the world."

While the comments were applauded by Indian political figures, who have long accused Pakistani intelligence officials of aiding the group that launched the 2008 attacks in Mumbai, Pakistan has been swift to condemn the comments.

Pakistan's high commissioner in London, told Al Jazeera that he thought Cameron should be supporting Pakistan instead of criticising it.

He said: "I think Cameron will review his statement, clarify his position, because we need to be supported not criticised for what we are doing. We want to see a strong and a stable and a democratic Pakistan."

Mr Cameron's comments come only days after the publication of classified US files detailing allegations that Pakistan's intelligence agency had helped arm and train the Taliban.

UK leader critical of Pakistan double dealing

There are bound to be enemies hiding under the blanket. The problem is not just how to weed them out but have the political will to deal with them effectively. Hence, the problem facing Pakistan.

i praise the british pms remarks that is what queen wants him to do- the crown of brirtish peoples minds

british pm should not care about the mistake to help the thankless indians come what may. even though pakistan is more friendly and not even less powerful than the britian which can teach britian a last noble lesson.british pm should not desist from issuing nonsense statements -all fools and evil are with him.

You made them

Were you born yesterday? Terrorisme is running in the blood of most Pakistani. Just look carefully at the founder Mohd Ali Jinnah face, doesn’t it say 1000 words. You British are idiots, just make a survey and find out how many Pakistani making living and becoming citizen in United Kingdom? They are enough to destroy your idiotic white race and your religion. Can you ever get citizenship and have equal rights, freedom in Pakistan. My foot you can.

i m just scared ofthe time once pakistanis will loose patience.all players should acknowledge pakistani sacrifices.it has lost three andfourstargenerals and thousands of citizens in this war.beaware of the fact that once pakistan will loose patience then ground will be shrinked.karzai,manmohan,obama and cameron along with orchested leak of so called secret documents are just pushing pakistan to start war against tribals to gain victory in forthcomming kandhar operation.pakistanis have no objection to that but all players should guarantie kashmir solution as per UN resolution so that pakistanis feel secure from eastren front.dear fellows you guys dont understand despite being defeated by afghans that pakistan cannot become sandwitch between india and talibans.
