US President Joe Biden, in a first letter to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Friday, stressed that the \u201cenduring partnership\u201d between the United States and Pakistan was \u201ccritical to ensuring the security of our people \u2014 and people around the world\u201d.<\/p>\n

According to the US Embassy in Islamabad, the letter said: \u201cThe enduring partnership between our nations remains critical to ensuring the security of our people \u2014 and people around the world \u2014and the United States will continue to stand with Pakistan to tackle the most pressing global and regional challenges of our time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Biden said this included advancing the two countries\u2019 shared vision for a future of \u201cgreater health security, economic growth and access to education for all\u201d.<\/p>\n

He added that through the US-Pakistan Green Alliance framework, the two nations would continue strengthening their climate resilience; supporting sustainable agriculture and water management and advancing Pakistan\u2019s recovery from the devastating floods of 2022<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe United States remains committed to working with Pakistan to protect human rights and promote progress.<\/p>\n

\u201cTogether, we will continue to forge a strong partnership between our nations and close bond between our people,\u201d the letter concluded.<\/p>\n

On March 15, US Ambassador Donald Blome had said that Pakistan was considered an \u201cimportant partner<\/a>\u201d and expressed hope in working with the newly elected government to continue building stronger bilateral ties.<\/p>\n

The development had come in a meeting between Blome and PM Shehbaz, their first after the latter was recently elected as the premier. Blome had congratulated Shehbaz on his election who in turn expressed satisfaction with the current bilateral relations between the countries.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, US lawmakers had urged<\/a> President Joe Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken to refrain from recognising the new government until allegations of election rigging were thoroughly investigated.<\/p>\n

The lawmakers, all Democrats like President Biden, in their joint letter, had expressed concerns about pre and post-poll rigging in Pakistan\u2019s parliamentary elections. They called for a transparent and credible investigation before recognising a new Pakistani government, citing evidence of violations and disruptions on election day.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
