Pakistan hasn't done enough to target the Haqqani network: Musharraf .— AP Photo

LITTLE ROCK, Arkansas: Former President Pervez Musharraf says the relationship between Pakistan and the United States is at its lowest point and plagued by ''total mistrust.''

Musharraf told an audience in the state of Arkansas on Thursday that the Pakistani military was guilty of ''terrible negligence'' in allowing Osama bin Laden to go undetected before he was killed in a US raid in May.

And he says Pakistan hasn't done enough to target Taliban-affiliated militants known as the Haqqani network.

But Musharraf says US leaders are wrong to accuse Pakistan of aiding militants. He blames American mistakes in Afghanistan for the Taliban's re-emergence.
