USA wishes Pakistan's President Well

[ Dawn News ] 8 Dec

The United States Wednesday wished Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari well after aides said he suffered a heart attack and dismissed rumors that the civilian leader was being pushed out.

White House spokesman Jay Carney is quoted as saying:

“We have seen the reports. We certainly wish him a speedy recovery.”

Zardari’s illness sparked media reports that he is contemplating resignation, but loyalists ruled out the idea he may step down.
