Prime Minister Imran Khan Friday addressed the nation and reiterated the stance that he would not tolerate the installation of a "foreign government" in Pakistan and that he would turn to the public for support if such a thing happens.
The PM stated that he would never accept an “imported government” and would look up to the public for their decision.
PM Khan maintained that even before the no-confidence motion was filed against him, the US official had warned the Pakistani ambassador that if Imran Khan manages to save himself from the motion, Pakistan would have to face “severe consequences.”
Criticizing the US official for his arrogance, he said that the official told the ambassador that if Imran Khan is ousted, Pakistan will be spared no matter who takes the charge.
In response to the Prime Minister's continued allegations against the US government, the state department once again responded to his accusation and 'bluntly' rejected the claim of any involvement in changing the regime in Pakistan.
Since PM Khan leveled allegations against the US government to oust him from power, this is the fourth time the US government refuted his accusations.
On March 27, at a Jalsa, the PM accused the US of interfering in Pakistan’s politics and plotting to oust his regime through a no-trust motion in the National Assembly.
As proof, the PM also carried a ‘threat letter’ at the public gathering, saying that a foreign country has warned of dire consequences if he remains in power.
Following the PM’s addressed on April 8 to the nation, during a press briefing the Deputy State Department spokeswoman Jalina Porter rejected the allegations.
“Let me just say very bluntly there is absolutely no truth to these allegations,” she said.
Jalina Porter went on to say that the US government supports the constitutional process and rule of law in Pakistan.
“Of course, we continue to follow these developments, and we respect and support Pakistan’s constitutional process and rule of law. But again, these allegations are not true,” she concluded.
