The United States is concerned about reports of intimidation and voter suppression in Pakistan’s election, Reuters quotes the White House as saying.
“We are watching this very, very closely,” White House spokesperson John Kirby told reporters on Thursday, expressing concern about “intimidation and voter suppression.”
“International monitors are still taking a look at those tallies, I’m not going to get ahead of that process,” he added about the vote count.
His comments came after the Foreign Office once again rejected international criticism of the election process, saying polls were an internal, sovereign affair of Pakistan.
