| Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan |
The Russian started an operation in Ukraine on the same day that Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan met with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Imran Khan is being pursued despite the fact that the occurrence is purely coincidental. US allies Pakistan and the United Kingdom are upset about the event. Imran's opponents in Pakistan argue that his policies have turned Pakistan into a hostile country. The role of the world's top superpower is also being debated in diplomatic circles in the wake of Pakistan's military takeover.
During an address to the nation on Thursday, Imran Khan said that foreign forces were working with the opposition to remove him from office. However, even though Imran did not identify the foreign power, he implied that it was the United States. In Pakistani diplomatic circles, there is also conjecture that Washington did not welcome Imran's visit to the Kremlin during Russia's invasion of Ukraine. On diplomatic channels, they also expressed their displeasure.
This was proof of a foreign plot against Imran Khan, Imran Khan said earlier this day in a letter addressing a gathering in Islamabad. In the National Assembly, the opposition has introduced a no-confidence resolution as part of a foreign plot. In a statement, the United States firmly denies the claims. The US State Department firmly denied any role in the no-confidence vote against Prime Minister Imran Khan in answer to an inquiry from Geo News. US participation in a no-confidence vote and a "threatening letter" to Prime Minister Imran Khan are false claims, they say in response.
Furthermore, Pakistan's absence from the UN General Assembly's voting on a resolution denouncing Russia's aggression on Ukraine has enraged the United States.
Identifying one other as "foreign spies" is nothing new for Pakistan's political parties. Those who are not with me are my adversaries. On the Kashmir dispute, critics claim that the Imran government failed to take an aggressive stance against India. Some individuals have dubbed them "Modi's dolls" because of this. The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) claims that the United States has sought to "educate" every administration in Pakistan that does not adhere to its own policies.
However, the opposition's no-confidence resolution against Imran isn't just based on the country's foreign policy. By proclaiming 'war' against corruption and misrule, Imran rose to power. No progress has been made in this area in the previous three and a half years. Despite the fact that he has not been directly accused of corruption, Imran has governed Pakistan in the footsteps of his predecessors. Opponents were brushed aside. To his own advantage, he has made his own decision. He was unable to take any long-term measures to improve the economy of the nation.
The military has supported and assisted him in his rise to power in 2016, but problems have recently arisen with it. 'State inside the State': Faiz Hamid, chief of Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), was desired by Imran Khan. His goal was for him to become the next army chief of Pakistan. However, the current commander in chief of the army, General Kamar Javed Bajwa, disagreed. Despite the appointment of Nadeem Anjum, the army chief's nomination, as the head of the ISI, there was still a lot of pressure on the military leadership. Pakistan's military establishment has no desire to have a strong democratic administration in the country.' They've put in a lot of effort to overthrow a number of democratically elected governments throughout the years. The persons involved believe that the military is playing a role in this political crisis.
Foreign assistance has decreased, commodity prices have risen, and these factors have put Pakistan's economy in jeopardy. Typical citizens are enraged. As a result, Imran Khan has been forced to resign by the opposition. the 342-seat Pakistan National Assembly is controlled by Imran Khan's Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI). Several parties, notably MQM and Muslim League-Q, helped Imran Khan build a coalition government. In opposition to Imran, the PPP and the Muslim League-Nawaz have come together after previously being on opposing sides. MQM-P, which had been part of the administration, defected to the opposition on Wednesday and formed forces with them. Hundreds of disgruntled PTI members are in touch with the opposition. Imran is more likely to lose the no-confidence vote if nothing remarkable occurs.
After declaring his withdrawal from the MQM-P coalition, Imran Khan was due to deliver a speech to the nation on Wednesday. India's NDTV said that he did not speak on the recommendation of Pakistan's army leader, citing Pakistan's inner circle. On Thursday night, he said that he would not resign as the opposition had requested. I'll fight until the last ball is bowled out of the stadium. Pakistan won the World Cup in 1992 thanks to the former cricketer.
Pakistan's Prime Minister, Imran Khan, transitioned from cricketer to politics in 2016. He will be in office until the end of August 2023 when his tenure expires. The no-confidence vote might force him to step down before his tenure ends. The next prime minister will come from the ranks of the opposition. The Muslim League-Nawaz leader and brother of former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif in exile in London, Shahbaz Sharif, has been declared the future prime minister in the event that Imran loses the no-confidence vote.
In an interview, Imran Khan remarked that his government's decision to allow Nawaz Sharif to go to London was a huge mistake. Pressure on the opposition is seen as strengthening the government by governments and heads of state in developing nations. In Pakistan, this concept has been proved to be incorrect yet again. Meeting of the National Security Committee was held before to Thursday's speech by Imran Khan. Concern was also voiced during the conference over outsiders prying into the country's internal issues. This is only a formality on my part.
No Pakistani Prime Minister has been able to serve out his or her tenure so far. In 1951, assassins killed the country's first prime minister, Liaquat Ali Khan. It was then that the Prime Ministers were pressured by the army to quit. Until March 25, 1989, Ayub Khan imposed martial rule in Pakistan. Afterward, Yahya Khan appeared. First and final polls were conducted on a universal suffrage basis, but he didn't hand over the reins of power to the Awami League. It took Bangladesh 9 months of constant liberation struggle to gain its independence after that. First President Zulfikar Ali Bhutto was elected on December 20, 1981, after Yahya Khan was ousted from office by the People's Party. In 1973, he was elected Prime Minister after the drafting of the country's new constitution. Army Chief Ziaul Haque overthrew him in 1986 and took control of the country. In a murder case, Bhutto was hung. Although Benazir Bhutto and Nawaz Sharif took power in succession following the mystery bombing that killed Zia, no one was able to finish his tenure. After Nawaz Sharif was ousted in 1999, army commander Pervez Musharraf took control and stayed in power until 2008. Benazir Bhutto and Nawaz Sharif were both forced to flee Pakistan during his leadership. Commit yourself to it. Benazir was later slain in a terrorist attack while visiting the nation for an election rally as part of a political bargain. Once again, the PPP and Muslim Nawaz dominated the nation for a long period of time. However, nobody was able to reach the deadline.
Imran Khan's retirement was reported by Dawn on Thursday in an editorial piece. Supposedly, the Prime Minister's departure is beneficial. By cutting ties with MQM-P, the coalition government has now lost its majority. There is little hope that Imran Khan would be able to avert the next crisis he will face in politics. It is quite doubtful that he will be rehabilitated by the strange foreign letter he received.
Pakistan's military leadership has always played a significant role in the country's political transitions. What's going to happen now? Pakistan's new prime minister may have to resign from the military if Imran fails the confidence vote.
Despite being 65 years old, the military still controls Pakistan's political system.
