Pakistani spy chief scraps trip to Britain |
2010-08-01 |
[Al Arabiya Latest] Pakistan's spy chief has called off a trip to Britain in protest at Prime Minister David Cameron's remarks on its militant ties, as Islamabad is hit by a barrage of criticism of its alleged links to terror groups. Senior intelligence officials, including the head of Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) Lieutenant General Ahmad Shuja Pasha, would not go to London on Monday as planned for counter-terrorism talks. "The visit has been cancelled in reaction to the comments made by the British prime minister against Pakistan," a spokesman for the ISI told The Times newspaper. "Such irresponsible statements could affect our co-operation with Britain." The daily also said Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari was considering pulling out of next week's three-day trip to Britain over Cameron's remarks. |
