Trump ready for any steps if Pak doesn't mend its ways: Mattis

US says, Pakistan has a last chance to give up using terrorism to further its goals before Washington initiates action against it. Responding to questions by members of the House Armed Services Committee, during a Congressional testimony on South Asia and Afghanistan, yesterday, Defence Secretary James Mattis said President Donald Trump is prepared to take whatever steps necessary against Pakistan, if it does not change its behavior and continued to support terror groups.<br/><br/>Mattis also warned Pakistan of global diplomatic isolation and losing its Non-NATO ally status if it failed to take action against safe havens to terrorists on its soil. He said US has enormously powerful number of options if Pakistan does not follow through and be a better promoter of stability in the<br/>region.
