ISLAMABAD: The US Ambassador to Pakistan Donald Blome said on Thursday that the prosperity and security of Pakistan remained a top priority for the United States.
Ambassador Blome called on Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar where the two discussed various aspects of bilateral relations and recent global and regional developments, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said.
In the meeting, Ambassador Donald Blome reiterated the United States’ commitment to working with the government and people of Pakistan while underscoring that prosperity and security for Pakistan remained a top priority for the US.
