Sherry Rehman, Pakistan’s envoy to the US, on Tuesday resigned following the defeat of the Pakistan People’s Party in last week’s general elections.
Congratulating the new parliament on its election, Rehman sent in her resignation to the caretaker Prime Minister Mir Hazar Khan Khoso, Pakistan Embassy spokesman Nadeem Hotiana said in a message posted on Twitter.
Another message on Twitter quoted Rehman as saying: ‘It is time a new envoy comes in as quickly as possible so that there is no gap in the relationship.’
