Trump victory: ‘Pakistan, others will have to review foreign policy’

Opposition Leader in National Assembly (NA) Khurshid Shah has said that victory of Donald Trump in US presidential polls will bring about a new change in the world and the entire world including Pakistan will have to review their foreign policy.
“World will now witness a change with Trump success in presidential polls in US. However the entire world including Pakistan will have to review their foreign policy”, he said this while talking to media here on Wednesday in parliament house.
Lashing out at government over pursuing ill conceived foreign policy he said “our foreign policy is confused. A serving Indian military officer Kulbhushan Yadev was arrested as Indian spy agency RAW agent but we failed to expose India’s vindictive face to the world. Had this incident occurred in India the latter would have maligned us in the world?
He went on to say “our foreign policy is unclear. Our external front has gone paralysed due to lack of foreign minister, he added. Induction of permanent foreign minister is need of hour, he stressed. However it seems as if government has no competent person to be appointed as foreign minister. For this reason government is not realising sensitive matters.
Replying to a question about Imran Khan he said that the Pakistan Tehree-e-Insaf (PTI) chief has no political or parliamentary experience. Earlier he used insulting language against parliament and later he returned to parliament.
Commenting on non participation by the PTI in the committee for law and justice he said role of real opposition is not played by abusing and levelling allegations. Opposition is that which we are doing in parliament. “we don’t know the PTI is playing what game, he remarked.
