IMRAN KHAN SAYS PAK GOVT ‘TASKED WITH RECOGNIZING ISRAEL’

Mon 30 May 2022:

Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf chairman and ex-premier Imran Khan said on Sunday that the rulers were a security threat to the country, alleging that they had been ‘tasked with recognising Israel’ and compromising with India on the Kashmir issue, and vowed to continue his struggle until the ouster of the ‘imported government imposed on the people through an international conspiracy.’

Former Prime Minister Imran Khan, at a rally, said the rulers are a security threat to the country, alleging that they had been ‘tasked with recognizing Israel’ and compromising with India on the Kashmir issue, reported Dawn.

Claiming that he would never accept the ‘imported government of slaves and looters’, Khan told a party workers’ convention in Charsadda that the rulers were ready to do everything ordered by America.

Khan hurled these allegations, including a clear reference to Israel’s recognition, a few days after Israeli President Isaac Herzog during his special address at the World Economic Forum talked about the ‘great change’ vis-a-vis Israel’s ties with the Muslim world, mentioning that he recently received a delegation from Morocco and another of Pakistani expats living in the US, reported Dawn.

“And I must say this was an amazing experience. We haven’t had a group of Pakistani leaders in Israel in such scope. And that all stems from the Abraham Accords, meaning Jews and Muslims can dwell together in the region […],” Herzog was quoted by Dawn.com as saying in Davos on May 25.

Meanwhile, the Foreign Office ‘categorically rejected’ the notion of any delegation from Pakistan visiting Israel.

The reported visit was organised by a foreign NGO, which is not based in Pakistan, said a spokesperson for the ministry of foreign affairs while responding to media queries, reported Dawn.

“Pakistan’s position on the Palestinian issue is clear and unambiguous. There is no change whatsoever in our policy on which there is a complete national consensus. Pakistan steadfastly supports the Palestinian people’s inalienable right to self-determination.

The establishment of an independent, viable and contiguous Palestinian state with pre-1967 borders and Al-Quds Al-Sharif as its capital, in accordance with the relevant UN and OIC resolutions, is imperative for just and lasting peace in the region,” the FO spokesperson explained.
