The BCCI had recently refused to travel to Pakistan for Asia Cup 2023 citing Indian government clearance on security issues. This forced the Pakistan Cricket Board to host in a hybrid model where four matches will be held in Pakistan and the rest of the matches in Sri Lanka.
Zardari while addressing an event at the Institute of Strategic Studies Islamabad, said that abandoning Afghanistan or its 40 million people during this critical phase could lead to "unimaginable consequences."
Taking to his official Twitter handle, Shehbaz Sharif wrote, "Deeply saddened by the loss of hundreds of lives in a train accident in India. I extend my heartfelt condolences to the bereaved families who lost their loved ones in this tragedy. Prayers for a speedy recovery of the injured."
"Today, Pakistan is releasing 200 Indian fishermen and 3 civilian prisoners. Earlier, 198 Indian fishermen were repatriated on May 12, 2023. This is in line with Pakistan's policy of not politicizing humanitarian matters. Compassion should take precedence over politics," Bilawal tweeted on F
Pakistan Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Sunday kickstarted his 3-day long visit to PoK where he will also deliver an address to the people residing in the region, reported Dawn.
Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Qin Gang met with Pakistan's Foreign Affairs Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari and Taliban's acting Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi in Islamabad last week to hold talks as part of a China-Afghanistan-Pakistan Foreign Minister's Dialogue.
"We always supported talks and even convinced our allies for it. But [now], how can we hold talks with terrorists? We can only hold talks with those who condemn terrorism and dissociate themselves from these political terrorists," Bilawal said.
Bilawal, while addressing a press conference in Karachi on Thursday, said, "The only advice I can give to the PTI is that what is done is done. The ones involved in this will have to answer for it."
He said that Saqib Nisar had played a key role in the disqualification of Nawaz Sharif on completely baseless and false allegations and ran a vindictive campaign against the PMLN in order to bring Imran Khan into power through a rigged election he presided over.
"We sincerely hope the political forces in Pakistan will build consensus, uphold stability and more effectively address domestic and external challenges so it can focus on growing the economy," Qin said, addressing a press briefing alongside his Pakistani counterpart, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari.
