The ministry released a statement late Wednesday following Rice's visit to Islamabad a day earlier and talks with Pakistan's military President Gen. Pervez Musharraf.

En route to Islamabad, Rice told reporters: "There has to be, the world expects there to be, democratic, free and fair elections in Pakistan in 2007."

Musharraf, a close U.S. ally in the war on terror, seized power in a bloodless military coup in 1999, the AP reports.
