Pakistan's prime minister has reacted angrily to the release of diplomatic cables by the WikiLeaks website.
But Yousuf Raza Gilani denies the documents will damage his country's relationship with the United States.
Cables released yesterday reveal Pakistan's army chief mused about forcing out civilian president Asif Ali Zardari, while US officials fretted about the possibility of the country's nuclear arsenal falling into the hands of terrorists.
Mr Gilani says the leaked documents are "malicious" and "misleading" and says Pakistan's nuclear weapons are governed by a foolproof command and control system.
Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani says documents released by the Wikileaks website will not have any effect on the strong strategic partnership between the USA and Pakistan.
