Amid the ongoing political crisis in Pakistan, Russia’s foreign ministry has responded to the claims of a “threat letter” to now de-notified PM Imran Khan, saying: “Since Imran Khan did not cancel his visit to Russia, the United States decided to punish Imran Khan.
Earlier, Imran Khan had said that a foreign nation disapproved of his independent foreign policies. He claimed that the foreign country wanted him to be ousted through a no-confidence vote so that Pakistan could be “forgiven”.
Khan said the “threat memo” demanded a regime change and mentioned that he should be removed as the prime minister.
Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan, who was on his maiden visit to Russia in February, had seemingly described Russia’s invasion of Ukraine as “exciting”. “What a time I have come… So much excitement,” he was heard telling a Russian official in a viral video after landing in Russia.
