WASHINGTON: US State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller said that assisting Pakistan in addressing its energy crisis remains a top priority for the United States.
During a routine briefing, when questioned about US pressure on Pakistan to halt its gas pipeline project with Iran, Miller underscored America’s commitment to aiding Pakistan’s energy needs, noting that the US has provided substantial support, including 4,000 megawatts of energy through various projects.
These initiatives have significantly bolstered Pakistan’s power generation capacity and are actively contributing to the provision of electricity to its citizens.
Miller also mentioned ongoing efforts in areas such as smart agriculture and energy. However, he refrained from commenting on the potential damages Iran may impose due to the pipeline project.
