The letter controversy at the centre of Pakistan's worsening political crisis could damage US-Pakistan ties
At the heart of Pakistan’s current political crisis is a letter that Prime Minister Imran Khan has described as evidence that the country's opposition has colluded with a foreign power to overthrow his government.
The entire contents of the letter haven’t been made public. It contains a message purportedly received by Asad Majeed, a Pakistani diplomat in Washington, from Donald Lu, the US Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asian Affairs. Majeed relayed the diplomatic cable to Islamabad. “What’s wrong with this entire saga is that the prime minister has used a diplomatic cable for his own survival. This has nothing to do with protecting the interests of the state,” says Shaista Tabassum, the former head of the University of Karachi’s international relations department.
But the gulf between Washington and Islamabad has widened in recent years as the US shifts focus towards India to counter China’s global ambitions, says Tabassum.
