ISLAMABAD: Pakistan on Tuesday dismissed the reports claiming Pakistani ambassador to the US, Jalil Abbas Jilani has been reprimanded by the White House through a letter, saying that no such letter was received by the Pakistani Mission in the United States.
In a brief statement issued here Tuesday, Foreign Office spokesman Nafees Zakariya categorically denied the development terming it incorrect.
“The news published today in a local daily regarding a letter of displeasure from the White House to our Ambassador in Washington is completely incorrect and baseless,” the spokesman said.
The spokesman said that such irresponsible and false reporting must be condemned. “It is unethical on the part of the Reporter, based in Washington, to have filed a baseless story without verifying its authenticity.”
Earlier, media reports alleged that Pakistani ambassador to the United States Jalil Abbas Jilani had recently been criticised by the White House for tweeting a picture during the last week of May which showed him along with US First Lady Michelle Obama.
