Refering to the United Kingdom, Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan on Friday said that a "powerful country" is angry with Islamabad because of his recent visit to Russia.

Addressing the Islamabad Security Dialogue on Friday, the premier said that the "powerful country" is supporting its ally (India).

"Today, I read the statement of the British Foreign Secretary that mentioned that they cannot say anything to India as it is an independent state -- I don't blame them for this support, this is our mistake," he said, according to Geo tv.

Addressing the ongoing controversy regarding the "threat letter", apparently sent by the US, the premier said that an honourable person is always respected, questioning if a country can threaten another country."

Earlier, in his remarks, National Security Adviser Moeed Yusuf said our national security policy focuses on peace, cooperation and economy. He reiterated that we want cooperation with all the countries.
