Pakistan’s intention to improve relations with all its neighbors including India, Afghanistan, Iran and China was announced by former ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) party leader Nawaz Sharif on December 9. during a meeting of the party’s parliamentary committee in Lahore.
“During my tenure, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee visited Pakistan.”“, recalled the politician.
He noted that his party, the PML-N, has always done a good job in governing the country, but has always been thrown out of power.
“The country prospered from 2013 to 2017 and the economy improved, but good people were expelled and Pakistan was handed over to the incompetent.”Nawaz Sharif said.
According to him, one of the possible reasons for the PML-N’s successive removal from power in 1993 and 1999 is that the Sharifs and their party opposed the Kargil war (the border conflict between Pakistan and India regarding the issue Kashmir, which lasted from early May to late July 1999).
The politician also expressed his hope that Pakistan can address all the difficulties that beset its people, but apart from intentions to strengthen relations with neighbors, he did not name other specific measures to overcome the crisis.
Let us remember that Nawaz Sharif returned to Pakistan in October 2023 after four years of “self-exile” in London, where he hid from two court sentences that allowed him to face up to 18 years in prison. However, in December he achieved acquittal of both convictions and thus solved most of the problems for his official return to Pakistani political life.
Nawaz Sharif has already been prime minister three times, winning elections in 1992, 1997 and 2013, but has never completed the constitutionally mandated five-year term.
