Washington: The United States has said it supports a strong dialogue between Pakistan’s civilian government and military establishment.
Welcoming Sherry Rehman, as Pakistan’s new envoy to US, state department’s Victoria Nuland Monday said, “We’ve long supported the civilian government in Pakistan. We cooperate closely with Pakistani civilian government, but we also cooperate closely with the military, and we want to see strong dialogue between them inside Pakistan”.
“We’ll obviously welcome Pakistan’s new ambassador to the United States. She’ll be received here. At an appropriate moment, she’ll also present her credentials at the White House when they schedule that,” said Nuland.
“It’ll be a good chance, in the new year, to talk about the important work that we have to do together,” Nuland added.
Nuland, however, refused to be drawn into the internal affairs of Pakistan when asked about the statement coming from the Prime Minister of Pakistan calling the actions of the head of the army and the head of ISI in giving statements to the supreme court illegal and unconstitutional.
“I think you’re trying to draw me into internal discussions inside Pakistan. I’m not so sure that that’s appropriate from this podium,” she said.
