ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has said that Imran Khan’s recent diatribe against parliamentary democracy is the latest in a series of attacks that fly in the face of how democracy functions in modern nation-states.

Taking to twitter, the prime minister said that Imran’s politics is aimed at making his way to power even if it means undermining foundations this country stands on.

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has lashed out at PTI chief Imran Khan for “rebutting” his ‘foreign conspiracy narrative’ wherein he had accused the US of conspiring his removal from power by backing the  opposition’s no-trust move in April.

In an interview with Financial Times, PTI Chairman Imran Khan took a ‘U-turn’ on his charges that the

PML-N led government had come to power through a conspiracy that was hatched by the United States.

PM Shehbaz, reacting to Imran’s statement, said the PTI chief’s “denial of his US conspiracy theory is a reminder of spiteful role he played to harm the country’s external relations while pursuing his own petty politics”.

Taking to Twitter, he said that the nation is shocked by his treachery and deceit inflicting irreparable damage on country.

Meanwhile, Chairman of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Imran Khan is ready to re-establish good relations with America by leaving behind the narrative of US conspiracy.

In an interview given to a British newspaper Financial Times, Imran Khan said that the issue of US conspiracy is over.

He said that Pakistan should have good relations all over the world especially with America.

The Chairman of PTI said that the relationship between Pakistan and America has been that of slave and master, but Pakistani governments were also more to blame for this.

Earlier, PTI Chairman Imran Khan on Sunday urged Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Umar Ata Bandial to be more assertive and stand with the people of Pakistan.

He said that wanted tell the respected Chief Justice of Pakistan that the entire nation is looking at you.

Imran added that what we are seeing in the country today, people are asking questions about journalist Arshad Sharif’s killing. He further said that the nation saw how Arshad Sharif stood on his narrative and the journalist was repeatedly threatened.
