Pakistan reacts to US resolution on political situation in Pakistan
Foreign Office Spokesperson Mumtaz Zahra Baloch says Pakistan believes that timing and context of this resolution does not align well with the positive dynamics of Pak-US bilateral ties.
Islamabad: Pakistan said US House of Representatives' resolution on political situation in Pakistan stemmed from an incomplete understanding of the political situation and electoral process in Pakistan.
In response to media queries regarding the passage of House Resolution 901, Foreign Office Spokesperson Mumtaz Zahra Baloch said Pakistan believes that timing and context of this resolution does not align well with the positive dynamics of Pak-US bilateral ties.
She said Pakistan, as the world's second-largest parliamentary democracy and fifth-largest democracy overall, is committed to the values of constitutionalism, human rights and rule of law in pursuance of our own national interest.
The Foreign Office Spokesperson said Pakistan believes in constructive dialogue and engagement based on mutual respect and understanding and such resolutions are therefore neither constructive nor objective.
She said they hope that the U.S Congress would play a supportive role in strengthening Pakistan-U.S ties and focus on avenues of mutual collaboration that benefit both our peoples and countries.
