ISLAMABAD: During his live telecast on Friday evening, Prime Minister Imran Khan discussed the letter and defined a cypher, which is a coded message sent by embassies to their respective countries.
The coded message sent by the ambassador, according to the foreign ministry, should not be revealed.
According to the article, a senior official in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, told: “The Foreign Office believes overwhelmingly that the foreign secretary should not make public the contents of the (coded) telegram dated March 7.”
“The ambassadors should be encouraged to share their assessments based on interactions with their host country interlocutors, and any action contrary to this would be detrimental to the national interest,” the official said.
He stated that this is done all over the world. “An ambassador’s cable is never made public for political reasons.” “There isn’t a single instance of this,” he added.
The use of diplomatic messages would prevent officials from the host countries from interacting with their Pakistani counterparts, whose job it is to keep their headquarters up to date with information relevant to their country.
