For the last few days USA is permanently stating that neither she is involved in the internal affairs of Pakistan nor it supports any political party, but here lies a point why America feels a need to clarify this that she is not interested in the political scenario.
Since long some news has been going viral on social media about the movements and meetings of US diplomats, who had a lot of meetings with political and non-political personalities, especially bureaucrats, in recent days.
It became a common vogue in Pakistan that everyone blames the US for all the wrongdoings in the country. The people smell conspiracy in every matter, but this misguided behavior of the public should be shunned as the nation should sense the reality.
His meeting with Inspector General of Police Punjab has floated a lot of speculation on the social media by some quarters that he might be working on a special agenda against the Chairman of Pakistan Tehrik-i-Insaf. Imran Khan.
Though it is a routine matter that diplomats often meet with different people including political leaders, scholars, lawyers, businessmen and sometimes with senior officers of the government. There is not any reason to create panic about the meetings of any diplomat or spreading rumors about any peculiar country.
Diplomacy is an extremely sensitive matter, which the common man cannot understand. The people should avoid spreading gossip on social media because sometimes, baseless propaganda drags the country towards loss. If the people do not realize the vulnerability of the matter, then they should not say anything about it.
Though the people have sentiments about their favourite political leaders, but it does not mean that they drift unjustified hoopla on the social media that may harm the country’s foreign relations.
There is an impression, which is being created in the social media that after the episode of “cypher”, US is trying to prevent Imran’s victory in the next general elections. Some seventeen months ago, when Imran Khan’s government was toppled through a no confidence motion adopted by the parliament, Imran Khan also took a plea that he was removed from power on a “cypher” which came from the USA..
Many people were astonished to hear the word “Cypher”, for the first time, when Imran in his last days in power, waved a piece of paper in a public rally, by saying that the cypher came from the USA as Washington did not want him to remain in power. As a matter of fact, the cypher is the diplomatic term which means that the ambassador of any country sends some secret message in code words to the foreign affairs ministry of his country
In the beginning the PDM led government, who came into power after the removal of PTI’s government, bluntly refused about the presence of any “cypher”, but later it was confirmed that the cypher was there.
Nowadays Imran Khan is also in jail for violating the official secret act as he has charge to disclose the cypher publically, which was an official secret. Now the main question is that if there was not any cypher, what is the reason to keep PTI’s head behind the bars and if there was cypher, then really had it mentioned what was said about it.
