Special Report - US adds Pakistan to blacklist for religious freedom violations Washington: The United States said Tuesday it has added Pakistan to its blacklist of countries that violate religious freedom, ramping up pressure over its treatment of minorities. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said he had designated Pakistan among "countries of particular concern" in a congressionally mandated annual report, meaning the US government is obliged to exert pressure to end freedom violations. #GeoNews #GeoBreakingNews #SpecialReport
