Rezaul H Laskar Islamabad, May 2 (PTI) Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani today lobbied with the US and Britain for putting a positive spin on the killing of Osama bin Laden by American forces in Pakistan, saying his country will continue to support efforts to eliminate terrorism.Gilani raised the need for "positive" and "constructive" messaging about the killing of the world's most wanted man during a meeting with visiting US Special Representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan Marc Grossman and in a telephone conversation with British premier David Cameron.He told Cameron that "positive messaging about Pakistan rather than finger pointing was the need of the hour".In order to continue Pakistan's "national consensus to defeat" extremism and terrorism, the country's role should be "duly recognised by the international community", he said.Cameron telephoned Gilani this evening to express solidarity with Pakistan, said a statement issued by the Pakistani premier's office.Gilani reiterated his government's "resolute commitment to take the war against terrorism to its logical conclusion" and said Pakistan will continue to play a constructive role for regional stability.During his meeting with Grossman, Gilani emphasised the need for "constructive and positive messaging" from Pakistan and the US on today's operation that killed bin Laden and stressed that "sensitivities in this regard must be given due importance rather than giving it a spin".The Al Qaeda chief was killed with four others during a pre-dawn raid by US forces on a compound near the garrison city of Abbottabad in northwest Pakistan.Media reports have suggested that the US informed Pakistan of full details of the operation only after bin Laden was killed.Gilani told Grossman that he appreciated US President Barack Obama's statement in which he acknowledged Pakistan's support and cooperation in tracing the hideout of bin Laden.The official statement quoted Cameron as saying that he regretted "negative comments about Pakistan" in the aftermath of the death of bin Laden but assured Gilani that the British government "fully understood the ground realities in Pakistan and the pivotal role of the government of Pakistan in the war against terror".Cameron also hoped that the process of reconciliation and reintegration in Afghanistan would now "progress smoothly and expeditiously".In yet another statement issued by his office, Gilani highlighted Pakistan's role in the struggle to eliminate terrorism and vowed that his country will continue to support international endeavours against this menace."The arrangements for comprehensive and effective intelligence sharing between our intelligence agencies with other countries' agencies including the US are in place," he said.
