Pakistan on Wednesday said it has not written any letter to the 44-member Nuclear Suppliers Group opposing the Indo-US nuclear deal.
"We have not written any letter to the NSG and reports in the Indian media in this regard are wrong," Pakistan's Foreign Office spokesperson Tasnim Aslam said in Islamabad.
She said Pakistan has enunciated its stand ever since the pact was finalised by US President George W Bush and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh in March 2006.
"We have (made clear) our position on the civilian nuclear energy (deal) and (are) holding talks with various member countries of the NSG on the issue," Aslam said.
Aslam said Pakistan considered the India-US nuclear deal discriminatory and wanted it to be given as a package deal to meet its energy requirements.
She said Pakistan had close ties with a number of NSG member countries and interacted with them about its stand on the India-US nuclear deal, but it has not written any letter in this regard to the NSG.
Soon after the details of the India-US nuclear deal were announced, President Pervez Musharraf said it would have serious implication for the region.
In its reaction, the Pakistan Foreign Office said the objective of strategic stability in South Asia and the global non-proliferation regime would have been better served if the US had considered a package approach for Pakistan and India as both have not signed NPT.
Besides criticising the deal, Pakistan maintained that it was currently in touch with China to secure more nuclear power plants.
Musharraf is expected to seek more nuclear reactors when he visits Beijing in June to attend the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit.
