According to diplomatic sources, Wells who is visiting Pakistan after Prime Minister Imran Khan’s successful visit to the US and meeting with President Donald Trump is scheduled to meet top civil and military leadership during her visit.
The US official is likely to meet officials at the Foreign Office today while Pak-US delegation-level talks are also expected on Wednesday.
During the talks, Pakistan will raise the issue of India’s move to strip occupied Kashmir of its special status under the Indian constitution’s Article 370.
Sources said, Pakistan will inform the US delegation about its stance over New Delhi’s decision and Indian aggression along the Line of Control (LoC).
Pakistan and US will also discuss the recent surge in an unprovoked firing and shelling on the civilian population and use of cluster bombs by Indian forces in Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK); deployment of additional troops and atrocities in Indian-occupied Jammu and Kashmir and recent developments.
The Pak-US delegations will deliberate over matters related to promoting bilateral cooperation between the two countries and the performances of working groups. Wells is also likely to pay a visit to Karachi during her stay in Pakistan.
