Fawad Chaudhry says he ‘doesn’t know’ whether Imran Khan met ex-US diplomat

Former information minister Fawad Chaudhry Monday neither accepted nor denied whether party chairman Imran Khan had a meeting with former US diplomat Robin Raphel at his residence. 

A day prior, the former prime minister had a meeting with Raphel at his Bani Gala residence in Islamabad, 

“There is no issue if Robin Raphel is in Pakistan or visits this country as she has retired and has no links with the US government,” he highlighted. 

The former minister said that the party wants diplomatic relations with the United States on an equal footing. “We don’t want war with America and we acknowledge the Pakistan-US relations,” he added. 

He went on to say that the PTI will “continue political engagement and transactions with the US government and the embassy,” adding that Pakistan-US relation was important for both countries,
