U.S. Expresses Concern Over Pakistan A.P. INDEXES: TOP STORIES \| NEWS \| SPORTS \| BUSINESS \| TECHNOLOGY \| ENTERTAINMENT Filed at 1:25 p.m. EDT By The Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) -- The State Department expressed concern today over troop movements in Pakistan following the dismissal by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif of the army chief of staff. ``We believe the constitution should be respected,' spokesman James P. Rubin said, adding that the situation was too fluid to speculate on the meaning of what he called a ``genuine political crisis.' ``If there has been a coup, we would obviously seek the earliest possible restoration of democracy in Pakistan,' Rubin said. A military coup also would make it impossible for the United States ``to carry on business as usual in Pakistan,' he said. White House spokesman Joe Lockhart, noting that ``clearly there is a political crisis unfolding,' said U.S. officials still were working to ascertain the extent of the crisis. Asked if the situation in Islamabad had raised concerns about control of nuclear weapons technologies in Pakistan, Lockhart said: ``No concern like that has been raised to me.'
