The United States stated that it cherishes its long-standing relationship with Pakistan and has always considered a wealthy and democratic Pakistan vital to its interests.
A spokesperson for the U.S. Department of State, Vedant Patel, on Wednesday said “The United States does not take a position on a political party’s candidates. However, we encourage the peaceful preservation of democratic, constitutional, and legal norms.”
“Finally, we will not allow propaganda, misinformation, or disinformation to impede any bilateral relationship, particularly with our cherished bilateral partner Pakistan.”
Vedant Patel declined to comment on former Pakistani prime minister Imran Khan’s remarks on his trip to Russia. However, he reaffirmed that the United States has long considered a wealthy and democratic Pakistan vital to its interests in the region and globally.
