WASHINGTON: The US State Department has said that Pakistan is one of the most important partners of the United States in the region.

Briefing the newsmen in Washington, US State Department principal deputy spokesperson Vedant Patel said: “Pakistan continues to be one of our most important partners in the region.”

Replying to a question, he said that there continues to be a lot of cooperation that the US have with the Government of Pakistan, especially in the security space and the trade sector.

Replying to another question, he said that we have been clear with countries around the world about the integral role that a free press plays in the fabric of democracy. That’s why we come up here and take questions regularly.

Patel denied commenting on the matter of attack on a Sikh leader, citing that US Law and Justice Department is looking into the matter and he cannot comment on it.

Earlier, the United States vowed to support Pakistan for economic reforms.

State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller told a press briefing that Pakistan has made progress in stabilizing its economy, and we support its efforts to manage its daunting debt burden.

The relationship between the United States and Pakistan has long been an important and complex one, marked by shared interests and occasional challenges. On July 7, 2021, the United States reaffirmed its commitment to continuing to strengthen ties with Pakistan in a meeting between Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi. This commitment signals a recognition of the strategic significance of the bilateral relationship and underscores the mutual desire to address issues of regional security, economic cooperation, and counterterrorism efforts. The United States has commended Pakistan’s role in supporting the peace process in neighboring Afghanistan and has expressed a dedication to collaborating on advancing economic development and regional stability. This commitment by both nations to build upon their diplomatic and strategic partnership serves as a testament to the value of mutual respect and understanding in international relations. As the US-Pakistan relationship advances, it is crucial to ensure open lines of communication, a spirit of cooperation, and a shared commitment to addressing common challenges. By fostering a relationship built on trust, mutual respect, and shared goals, the United States and Pakistan can work together towards a future of greater regional stability and prosperity.
