Islamabad: Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan has said that the United States views Pakistan as “useful” only to clean the “chaos” left in Afghanistan after 20 years of fighting and preferring India in forming “strategic partnerships”.
“I think Americans decide that India is a strategic partner.
Maybe that’s why Pakistan is treated differently.
Pakistan is only considered useful in the context of completing this chaos,” Prime Minister said during interaction with foreigners.
Media on Wednesday night, reported dawn.
He also said that Pakistan’s closeness with China is another reason for changes in the US attitude.
Pakistan was not happy that Joe Biden had not spoken with Imran Khan because he assumed the US presidency in January.
Pakistani National Security Advisor Moeed Yusuf recently expressed disappointment with the reluctance of Biden to contact Khan despite considering Islamabad as an important country in some critical problems such as Afghanistan.
However, the prime minister said he did not really “wait” for a telephone call from the US President.
“I continued to hear that President Biden had not called me.
This is his business.
Not that I am waiting for a phone call,” he said, responding to the question.
Previously in July, Imran Khan said that the United States “really disrupted it” in Afghanistan with initially looking for military solutions and then trying to find political solutions from the position of weakness.
Meanwhile, Khan said the Taliban would not talk to the Afghan government during Ashaf Ghani remained the president of the country.
Speaking with foreign journalists in Islamabad, Imran Khan said political settlement looks difficult in current conditions.
“I tried to persuade the Taliban …
three to four months back when they came here,” Imran Khan Imran Khan Khan said.
The situation in Afghanistan has worsened badly when the Taliban have looted people and killed civilians after arresting many regions of the government.
The Taliban increased his attack on Afghan forces as soon as US forces began to withdraw from Afghanistan in large quantities after a peace agreement was signed between Washington and the Taliban in February last year.
