ISLAMABAD – Russian Ambassador in Pakistan Alexey Yurievich Dedov called on prime minister-in-waiting Imran Khan at Banigala in Islamabad on Thursday.
The Russian ambassador felicitated the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman on his victory in the recently held general elections and discussed matters of mutual interest.
Imran, who is due to be sworn-in as premier next week after his July 25 election victory, met acting US Ambassador to Pakistan John F Hoover on Wednesday and said the ups and downs in relations had led to a trust deficit.
“(My party) wants to build a relationship with United States based on trust and mutual respect and hence our government will engage with US to make this relationship more balanced and trustworthy,” he said.
