WikiLeaks expose no ’sacred scriptures’ or ‘divine revelations’: Pak minister

ISLAMABAD - The diplomatic cables released by whistle-blower website WikiLeaks are not ’sacred scriptures’ or ‘divine revelations’ that those should be believed, Federal Minister for Information Qamar Zaman Kaira has said.

“Relations of countries stand on ground realities instead of propositions,” Geo News reported Kaira, as saying, on the occasion of International Disabled People’s Day.

He was confident of keeping the ties with friendly countries on track despite the startling disclosures made by the leaked US cables.

Following the ‘Cablegate’, US State Department Spokesman Philip J. Crowley had told a press briefing that US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had telephoned Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari to “regret the fact that cables were released.” (ANI)
