Kabul, Jan 15 (IBNS): US President Donald Trump has been awarded the 'Medal of Bravery' by a group of Afghan men for his stance against Pakistan.

Trump recently announced that he will stop all US aid to Pakistan, as he accused the Asian nation of using the funds to train terrorists.

According to reports, the medal was handed over to the US Embassy in Kabul on Saturday by a group of men from Logar province.

It costs around $700 US dollars and is made of gold.

Following Trump's decision, Pakistan is set to lose around $1.3 billion US dollars in annual aid.
