Pakistan, April 17 -- British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is facing renewed calls to resign after a controversy involving his former ambassador to the United States. The issue relates to security vetting failures and alleged misleading statements about the appointment process. The development matters as it raises questions over government transparency and accountability in the UK.

Moreover, the row intensified after Mandelson was later dismissed over separate allegations linked to Jeffrey Epstein.
