Islamabad (Web Desk): Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Monday while rejecting India’s attempts to link Pakistan to the Pahalgam incident without providing any evidence, reiterated his offer for a transparent, credible and neutral international investigation into the incident and invited the United Kingdom (UK) to join it.

According to details, the premier was talking to UK High Commissioner to Pakistan, Ms. Jane Marriott, who called on him in Islamabad.

PM Shehbaz shared Pakistan’s perspective on the prevailing situation in South Asia, in the aftermath of the Pahalgam incident.

He noted that with the support of friendly countries, including the UK, his government’s foremost priority remained advancing economic growth and development of the country, and that Pakistan would never take any action that could imperil regional peace and security.

PM Shehbaz urged the UK, which enjoyed good relations with both Pakistan and India, to play its part in de-escalating the situation.

The British high commissioner thanked the prime minister for sharing Pakistan’s position and said that the UK would work closely with Pakistan and India for maintaining regional peace and security.
