Pakistan’s election process is an internal sovereign affair and the nation is committed to upholding its constitutional obligations, the Foreign Office (FO) has said.
Responding to queries regarding the global reaction to the February 8 polls at a weekly press briefing, FO Spokesperson Mumtaz Zahra Baloch highlighted the participation of millions of voters during the general elections.
According to state-run Radio Pakistan, she mentioned that Pakistan welcomed foreign observers, including a group from the Commonwealth, demonstrating the country’s commitment to transparency in the electoral process.
Pakistan takes its constitutional obligations seriously, Baloch asserted, adding that any step that Pakistan takes in this regard is in conformity with its own constitutional obligations and not influenced by external advice.
