US Embassy in Islamabad, Pakistan.
Imran Khan, Pakistan's prime minister, said his government on Friday gave an official note to the United States' embassy in Islamabad to protest Washington's interference in the country's affairs.
"We now have given a demarche to (the) American embassy," Khan told ARY, a local TV channel, in an interview, referring to the note he sent to the mission against the background of foreign interference to oust Khan from power.
In a speech yesterday evening, Khan said he refused to resign and that there is a foreign conspiracy against Islamabad, shining at a "threat letter" from the US because he refused to establish US military bases in Pakistan.

"The letter stated that the no-confidence motion was being tabled even before it was filed, which means the Opposition was in contact with them," Khan said, but he later called it a "slip of tongue."
"We are getting messages from some foreign countries... They say that they will forgive Pakistan if Imran Khan goes," he said, addressing his nation.
He asserted that he will fight "till the last ball" instead of resigning.
"If they fail to oust me, Pakistan will have to face difficult circumstances," he said a few days ago when he first mentioned the conspiracies against Islamabad.
"Three stooges are sitting here working with foreign powers. They want Imran Khan to be ousted and want this certain person to take this place and everything will be fine then," he said. "If you think that your conspiracy will be successful, I want to tell you I will fight with this. They can't do anything."
