Pakistan
Matthew Miller said that Pakistani politics are a matter for the Pakistani people to decide.
WASHINGTON (Dunya News) - US State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller said that there is no truth in claims that Imran Khan could be released if Donald Trump is elected as the new president.
Briefing the media in Washington on Wednesday, Matthew Miller said that legal proceedings against the former prime minister [Imran Khan] are matters for the Pakistani courts to decide.
Replying to a question regarding PTI leaders Latif Khosa’s claim that US diplomat Donald Lu was involved in a conspiracy to remove Imran Khan from prime minister office, Matthew Miller said that it is not true.
“The allegations that the US played any role in his removal from office are false. We’ve gone over that many number of times from this podium,” Matthew Miller said.
He said that Pakistani politics are a matter for the Pakistani people to decide in accordance with their laws and constitution.
