Pakistan Army Chief Gen Qamar Bajwa has said the country wants to continue its ties with the United States and China, even as Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan alleged the involvement of foreign powers to topple his government.
Speaking at the Islamabad Security Dialogue, Gen Qamar Bajwa said, “We share a long history of excellent and strategic relationship with the US which remains our largest export market. We seek to continue our ties with both countries (China and US).”
Pakistan’s PM Imran Khan alleged that his government was in possession of a secret diplomatic letter that proved a foreign conspiracy to destabilise his government.
He alleged that the letter was sent to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) of Pakistan. While the government earlier said the letter could not be made public, on Thursday, its contents were presented before journalists “off the record”, local newspapers reported.
The US had, however, rejected the claims and said it was following the developments in Pakistan.
