WASHINGTON: Pakistan’s ambassador to the United States Husain Haqqani has
made it clear that his country would not share the wreckage of a US helicopter
used in the raid that killed Osama bin Laden with China, after speculation that
the aircraft contained secret technology.
“Pakistan is not going to share any technology, and I don’t think our friends
in China have shown any interest in doing so,” he said this in an exclusive
interview to CNN.
Responding to a question, he said, Pakistan and US were still “in close
contact” and were trying to “get to the bottom of things.”
“The United States and Pakistan, at the government-to-government level, the
intelligence-to-intelligence level and military-to-military level, are in close
contact,” he said.
“We are not in the business of denial or contradiction right now. We are
trying to get to the bottom of things, understand the intelligence and work
together,” he added.
“At the same time, we continue to be concerned about unilateral actions and
would prefer if the United States works with Pakistan instead of making Pakistan
look like the bad guy. Online
