#Pakistan's top security forum, the #NSC, attended by top Govt, military, and intelligence officials, chaired by PM @CMShehbaz, concludes there is no "foreign conspiracy" behind ex-PM #ImranKhan's exit from power after he lost parliamentary majority and was voted out. /1
Ex-PM #ImranKhan's conspiracy claim debunked by #Pakistan's top security forum:
"NSC discussed telegram from 🇵🇰 Emb in 🇺🇸 (...) informed by premier security agencies they found no evidence of any conspiracy (...) The NSC (...) concludes there has been no foreign conspiracy." /2
Today's National Security Committee of the Cabinet is more credible than the Mar 31 meet that ex-PM #ImranKhan politicized. This meeting is strengthened by the presence of Amb @asadmk17, ex-Washington, the Amb who wrote the cable and briefed the NSC. /3
Amb @asadmk17's briefing today at National Security Committee is significant. In DC, he went out of the way to revive #Pakistan-#US ties; received a Congressional Recognition. Ex-PM @ImranKhanPTI's conspiracy theory was a direct attack on Amb Khan's work/4
Ex-PM #ImranKhan politicized NSC meeting of 31 March 2022. #PTIGovernment exploited a routine diplomatic cable. Military leadership & intelligence agencies should not have endorsed the "interference" trap that #PTI Govt pushed. They likely wanted to avoid confrontation. /5
Today's NSC meeting paves the way for restoration of #Pakistan-#US relations under PM @CMShehbaz and @POTUS. The new American ambassador is expected to arrive in #Islamabad soon. 🇵🇰 🇺🇸 /6
#Pakistan Ministry of Foreign Affairs @ForeignOfficePk says that @asadmk17, former Amb to #US, endorses conclusions of National Security Cmte that there is no "foreign conspiracy" in a diplomatic cable he wrote & was used by ex-PM #ImranKhan to claim American role in his ouster/7
A TV channel allied with ex-PM #ImranKhan contradicted #Pakistan's top natsec forum #NSC on debunking Khan conspiracy theory of a #US role in his fall. @ARYNEWSOFFICIAL claimed Amb @asadmk17 dissented from NSC position. MOFA says this is false, amounts to disinfo angst State/8
