WASHINGTON: Pakistan's ambassador in the United States Ali Jehangir Siddiqui has revealed breakthrough in the Pakistan US ties.
The outgoing ambassador said that during his tenure the trust deficit present between the United States and Pakistan shrunk as both the countries looked for shared ground on diplomatic issues including Afghanistan war.
Siddiqui said that there were some nagative tweets in January sent by the US officials in regards to Pakistan but now the situation has come up to the point that US President Donald Trump in a letter to Prime Minister Imran Khan asked for help.
He said that there was no difference in the wordings of the press releases issued by the Pakistani foreign office and secretary of state after the meeting in Pakistan.
"There have been breakthroughs in US-Pak relations. Coalition support fund is a separate issue to be addressed.
"Pakistan, as am an important stakeholder, will continue to play role in bringing an end to the Afghan war," he said.
