WASHINGTON: A senior American diplomat Thursday spoke with Caretaker Foreign Minister Jalil Abbas Jilani to discuss critical issues in the US-Pakistan partnership, including the Israel-Palestine conflict, according to State Department spokesperson Mathew Miller.

The Acting Deputy Secretary of State and Under Secretary for Political Affairs, Victoria Nuland, also discussed “our mutual interest in facilitating the safe and timely resettlement of eligible Afghans to the United States,” Miller said in a statement.

“They also agreed on the importance of free and fair elections that are inclusive and held in a manner consistent with Pakistan’s laws,” the statement said.

During a discussion on the raging Israel-Palestinian conflict, the Acting Deputy Secretary highlighted the United States call for the release of all hostages and the protection of civilians from harm, it said. “Acting Deputy Secretary Nuland and Foreign Minister Jilani also agreed on the need for a continuous flow of humanitarian aid to civilians in Gaza and to prevent the conflict from spreading,” the statement added.

FM calls on global community to hold Israel accountable

There seems to be no let-up in the Israeli bombardment of besieged Gaza so far. Vetoes by permanent members of the UN Security Council blocked the 15-member body from taking any action aimed at resolving the crisis.

The UN General Assembly, meeting in an emergency session, is set to vote Friday night on a resolution, submitted by Arab and OIC countries, that calls for an immediate ceasefire and unhindered humanitarian access to the enclave.

"why should it matter what the American ambassador thinks?" have we really become another satellite of America? yes it is true, we have become another illegitimate state of America. Lawless, helpless, penniless, shameless. That's what you get when the army is in charge.
