Pakistan&s jailed former prime minister, Imran Khan, said on Friday that terrorism cannot be eliminated without having dialogue with the authorities in Afghanistan.Speaking to reporters on Friday, Khan expressed his support for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapour&s proposal for a direct dialogue with Kabul.&Ali Amin is absolutely right,& Imran Khan stated.
&They should be beseeching him to go and talk to Afghanistan for the sake of God.&A day earlier, Pakistan&s Defense Minister Khawaja Muhammad Asif criticized Gandapur&s plan to talk to Kabul, saying it was a direct attack on the federal government.When questioned about the possibility of a province directly engaging with another country when a federal government and the Foreign Office were already in place, Imran Khan replied: &Forget the Foreign Office, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has been the most affected by terrorism.&He said that a large number of policemen in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa have been killed in the fight against terrorism and if terrorism is not controlled, the economy will come to a standstill.Khan urged the government to lend a hand to anyone attempting to eradicate the menace of terrorism.&If someone is trying to end terrorism, cooperate with them,& he stated, dismissing the perception that Gandapur&s intentions were anti-state.
&Ali Amin is speaking in the favour of the country, not against it.&Clarifying Gandapur&s stance, he pointed out, &Ali Amin spoke about going but didn&t say he was leaving immediately, — he didn&t even fix a time.& Khan concluded his talk by saying, &What wrong has Ali Amin said?&Gandapur announced on Wednesday that he would send a delegation to Afghanistan to resolve bilateral issues.The post Pakistan&s ex-PM Khan says terrorism cannot be eliminated without dialogue with Afghanistan first appeared on Ariana News.
