After a disappointing announcement by the United States of America over the India-US trade deal, the US President Donald Trump went on to hurt India’s sentiments even more. Donald Trump on Thursday has announced sealing a trade deal with Pakistan and said that Washington will work with Islamabad to develop what he described as the South Asian nation's "massive oil reserves".

As reported by news agency PTI, It is not immediately clear what massive oil reserves in Pakistan Trump was referring to.

While posting on social media, US President Donald Trump also wondered if  Pakistan in future could probably sell oil to India.
