The United States says it values its relationship with Pakistan including with respect to counter terrorism.
Replying to a question during his press briefing in Washington, Spokesperson of the US State Department Matthew Miller said we have supported Pakistan through a number of pieces of assistance to help with counterterrorism and with other law enforcement activities.
He said we will continue to support Pakistan’s counterterrorism operations.
Responding to another question, the Spokesperson said the arrest of the PTI Chairman is an internal matter of Pakistan. He said we continue to believe that these are matters for the Pakistani people to decide.
Answering yet another question about cipher cable, Matthew Miller said the allegations that the United States has interfered in internal decisions about the leadership of Pakistan are false.
He said a number of people have taken this matter out of context and used it for political purposes.
