Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has warned President Arif Alvi if he tries to mess up the army chief's summary, he will have to face the consequences, reporter 24NewsHD TV channel.  

Addressing a press conference, he alleged that Imran Khan’s long march aimed at making the appointment of army chief controversial.

He said Imran Khan had inflicted colossal damage to the economy and foreign policy of the country during his tenure. 

“Imran Khan was imposed on the country and so much damage had been done due to his policies that the country is now on the verge of default,” he alleged. 

Bilawal further alleged that PTI chairman Imran Khan is using undemocratic forces for his politics. 

“PPP has always struggled to strengthen democracy and Imran Khan s journey from being a cricketer to being selected is in front of everyone, he added. 

He said the whole nation suffered due to the ‘selected’ prime minister (Imran Khan). “The selected premier had been imposed on the country which harmed almost all the institutions of the country, he added. 

PPP Chairman Bhutto further alleged that Pakistan’s bitter relations with various countries were not because of the people but owing to the wrong policies of a selected prime minister.  

Bilawal said that the long march has no democratic purpose as Khan Sahib did all his politics riding on the shoulders of undemocratic forces.

The foreign minister recalled that Imran Khan came to Islamabad on May 25 and tried to sabotage the talks with the IMF. “Now, I am sending a message to Khan and all forces to stop playing this game, he said adding that how will you bear the difficulties in the future if you are setting the tradition?  

He further stated that Imran Khan is playing a non-democratic game as he is linking his politics with the posting of the army chief. “If you are leading a real freedom march why did you choose Rawalpindi as your destination, he asked.   He said that the game Imran Khan is playing if this tradition is established, there will be a sit-in in Rawalpindi after three years.
