Islamabad: Pakistan peoples Party Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has welcomed the statement of Prime Minister Imran Khan about recognition of Afghan government, saying any Afghan government should be recognized only after having international consensus.
Giving an interview to a British media outlet, he said a consesus at national level in Pakistan was also need of the hour, but no parliamenary sitting had been planned to take up this issue.
"There is no opinion within Pakistan about recognition of the Afghan regime as unfortunately we have yet to convene a parliamentray session to discuss the issue because of other issues."
Bilawal said Pakistan should support an inclusive government in Afghanistan and play its role in protecting Afghan women and children.
He was of the view that Pakistan's interference in Afghanistan was usually an exaggerated practice.
The PPP leader said Pakistan would have to play its role in association with the global partners that the Afghan soil be not used for terrorism. "Pakistanis like their Afghan brothers are now sick of terorism of decades. We all are expecting betterment and peace in the region."
"We should get ready for the worst while expecting better," Bilawal said.
