Pak NSA Moeed Yusuf Islamabad: The British government did not state any reason as it unilaterally called off the visit of Pakistan's National Security Adviser (NSA) Moeed Yusuf on Friday, media reports said on Saturday.
The NSA was scheduled to visit the UK next week.
Quoting sources, the report said that the visit was called off owing to Pakistan’s policy towards standoff between Russia and Ukraine, reports The News International.
Pakistan has expressed its dismay over the move taken by the European nation.
Asim Iftikhar, spokesman for the Foreign Office in his media interaction on Friday made it clear that Pakistan had taken note of a joint statement issued by a group of EU envoys posted in Islamabad.
The spokesman was quoted as saying by The News International, “We expressed concern over the statement because as I said that is not the way diplomacy should be practised, and I think they have realised.”
