  • Ambassador Donald Blome calls on PTI leader at his residence.

  • PTI leader confirms development saying meeting took place last week.
US Ambassador to Pakistan Donald Blome called on Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Senior Vice-President Fawad Chaudhry at his residence, it emerged on Friday.

A photo of the meeting was shared by Fawad's wife, Hiba Chaudhry, on her Twitter handle.

“Great to meet Donald Blome the US Ambassador to Pakistan at our place,” she wrote in the caption.


In a statement, Fawad confirmed the development, saying the meeting with the US envoy took place five or six days ago.

Earlier in February this year, Fawad confirmed that he held a meeting with Ambassador Donald Blome and other senior officials, focusing on the worsening human rights situation in Pakistan, The News had reported.

Taking to Twitter, the former information minister said: "Had a good meeting with US ambassador and senior officials. The worsening HR [human rights] situation in Pakistan was a particular focus of discussion."

The PTI leader said that he informed the US officials of the party's concerns regarding the "misuse of anti-terrorism and blasphemy laws by the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM)-led government against the political opponents".

The meeting came as the PTI is seeking to mend its ties with US after initially accusing the US of toppling the Imran khan-led government in April last year.

For a long time, former PM Imran Khan — who was shown the door through a no-confidence motion in April last year — had been claiming that the US backed the regime change because it wanted to have military bases in Pakistan and use the country once again to meet its foreign policy objectives in the region and beyond.

However, in November last year, Khan took a U-turn on his long-standing position of blaming the US for regime change conspiracy and the ouster of his government in April last year.
 
This needs to stop. I don't think it's healthy foreign govts meet with our politicians when they're not formally in govt.

On surface level it's harmless, but I fear there is more to these meetings than meets the eye.

I hope PTI isn't making any promises. Which is unlikely as "United States" and "strings attached" are two phrases that always go together.

But, at the same time, it's intl. pressure , esp US, that can knock some sense into these bastards.

this must come to an end, these meetings always raise eyebrows about what is happening and all the parties are into it .

it seems it require a legislative move but it can only be possible when we have sincere people sitting in the parliament. well, may be we don't need legislation in that case.

people have their own thoughts and views but then we have affiliations which blind our scope and gear us up with tunnel vision.

same is the case here, people who seems quite sane when post in other sections of the forum (defense/strategic), they fall to their tunnel vision when it comes to politics.

then there is a " small lot" here at this forum who are very careful when post even in political section.

we really lack good people with sane mind and forum is full up to the brink affected by the viral politics. we have more of such members who share nothing but dirt.

then we call politics dirty, which is not.
