Newsnomics AJAY ANGELINA Reporter | Pakistan’s former Prime minister, Imran khan, is heading toward the federal Capital Islamabad on the day 6 of long March 11, leading hundreds of thousands of his supporters.
Addressing to the participants on Oct 31. Imran khan said, “our long march is not for politics, not for personal interests, but only for the purpose of making the nation truly free by holding a free and early general election.” Added “I want a clean and transparent election, so our people should decide who will lead this country,”
Since his ouster in April 2020, Khan has continued to allege that US officials conspired with a “group of
corrupt politicians” to topple his government, while US officials “always claim that they have nothing to do
with Pakistan’s internal politics.”
The Us statement comes right hours after Imran khan addressed the gathering of long march on Monday.
The US State Department spokesperson Ned Price said, addressing a weekly briefing at the State
Department's office in Washington.
"We value that longstanding cooperation between the United States and Pakistan. We’ve always viewed a
prosperous and democratic Pakistan as critical to our interests. That remains unchanged."
The US supports the peaceful upholding of constitutional and democratic principles not just in Pakistan, but
around the world. These are issues that we discuss with all of our partners around the world” He said.
