The assertion made by a senator from Pakistan that the US and Pakistan are collaborating closely to end the wrongful imprisonment of the former prime minister was questioned by State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller during a news briefing.

We do not adopt a stance on certain issues, sorry. That’s issues the Pakistani government should decide on, Miller answered.

In response to another inquiry concerning Pakistan’s security state, Miller stated, “Pakistan has suffered greatly at the hands of terrorists.”

Our deepest sympathies are sent to the families impacted by this terrorist attack. We regret the deaths and injuries caused and are determined to collaborate with Pakistan in combating the common threat that terrorist organizations provide to the entire area.

The spokesman urged Pakistani authorities to abide by the non-return guideline while discussing the treatment of Afghan refugees in that country. Regarding the security of people resettling in the US and immigration routes, we have maintained regular and tight contact with the Government of Pakistan.

As always, we’ll collaborate with the Pakistani government to resolve any problems or issues.

Ensuring the secure and effective relocation of those individuals is beneficial for both of our nations. In light of the dire circumstances in Afghanistan, we will also keep pushing Pakistan and the other neighbors of the country to abide by the non-return advisory and to work with international humanitarian organizations to provide humanitarian aid and support the installation of vital protection screening mechanisms.
