ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan Sunday reiterated that a foreign interference had been made into the internal politics of Pakistan as a plan for a no-confidence motion was orchestrated outside.
Addressing Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf leaders after the dissolution of the National Assembly, he said the National Security Committee’s meeting, the country’s highest security body, also noted that foreign interference was made into the internal politics of the country through a no-confidence motion.
He said minutes of the communique regarding a meeting between the ambassador of Pakistan in the US and the US officials were shared in the NSC’s meeting. “Donald Lu is responsible for the current situation,” he said, referring to the US official who is currently serving as Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asian Affairs.
The prime minister said a plan was perpetrated outside Pakistan to interfere into internal politics of the country, adding when the highest national security body confirmed it, it became irrelevant as to how many numbers the opposition had in the assembly.
“The embassy officials of the said country were also in contact with the PTI members who had defected, he said.
The prime minister referring to his announcement early in the day, said that the opposition was in a state of shock and they did not know what had happened to them. “The opposition has no ideal what has just transpired. I would like to congratulate you for foiling the conspiracy,” he said.
