Washington, April 28: Amidst reports that Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) of late do not see an eye to eye, Pakistan’s envoy to the US Husain Haqqani said both are best of partners in the war against terrorism.
“Actually, contrary to public perception, CIA and ISI are the best of partners,” Haqqani told the MSNBC news channel in an interview.
“Just as there are people who don’t want to believe the birth certificate even if it exists, similarly, there are people who don’t want to believe that the ISI is a partner of the CIA. And that causes a lot of problems,” Haqqani said referring to the controversy surrounding the birth certificate of President Barack Obama.
“The truth is that, in the last few months, we have really worked at bridging the gap. Last week, Pakistan’s Foreign Secretary was in town. We had intense meetings.
