Prime Minister Imran Khan has stated that he fears a nuclear war with India as a result of the BJP government’s fascist policies.
In an interview with Al Jazeera, the Prime Minister also addressed the plight of Kashmiris, saying that the occupied Kashmir is like a prison, with eight million Kashmiris forced to live in the open. “The Kashmir issue will be raised at all forums,” he added.
Imran Khan said the BJP’s fascist government was dangerous to India and the region, and he “feared that a nuclear war between Pakistan and India would erupt as a result of the BJP’s policies.”
“I don’t understand how the BJP governs such a wise nation as Hindus,” he continued.
The Prime Minister also insisted that the cause of the countries’ poverty was not a lack of resources, but rather the corruption of their leaders. “Corruption is something that ruins a country.” “Poor countries are poor not because they lack resources, but because their leaders are corrupt,” Imran Khan explained.
In response to a question, the prime minister stated that the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) transformed people, changed their personalities, and made them leaders. “He was Rahamtullil Alamin (a blessing for the entire world), not just Muslims.” “Anyone who follows in his footsteps will rise,” Imran Khan said.
He slammed the Bhuttos and Sharifs, accusing them of destroying the country and contributing to the country’s current problems. Pakistan was endowed with natural resources, but the Bhutto and Sharif families abused them, he added.
Imran Khan stated that his government fought against the two super-rich families in order for Pakistan to become prosperous. He claimed that the two families were attempting to establish their dynasties in Pakistan and were to blame for the country’s current state.
“If allegations of corruption are levelled against ministers, I will conduct transparent investigations,” he said, adding that the government acted after a sugar investigation report revealed the mafia.
Imran Khan told Al Jazeera’s anchor Ola Al-Fares that he was well acquainted with the Western political system during his long stay in Britain and has always criticised the Western powers’ policies.
Concerned about the Afghan crisis, the Prime Minister stated that they were facing extreme hunger and that the US should assist them. “I didn’t understand what the US wanted to accomplish in Afghanistan.”
