Nawaz Sharif challenges Imran Khan
He issued a direct challenge to Khan, saying, “If the third force was not you, then I promise to retire from politics and go home.”
The former premier asserted that the same individuals who supported PTI founder Khan also undermined his own government and derailed democracy. He recalled the threats made during the sit-in at the Prime Minister’s House, where it was said, “Nawaz Sharif, we will put a rope around your neck and bring you out.” He referenced the “umpire’s finger” Imran Khan often alluded to during his political campaigns.
Sharif demanded that Khan answer these allegations before addressing him further. “Imran Khan should first answer these questions to the nation and then talk to us. We are the ones who stood firm on May 28, rejecting Bill Clinton’s $5 billion offer not to conduct nuclear tests. We did not sell out, unlike others who are mere rejects of that era,” he asserted.
The PML-N president challenged Imran Khan to reveal whether he was not the ‘third force’ referred to by retired General Zaheer-ul-Islam. Sharif demands to know who Imran Khan’s ‘umpire’ was, and insists that Khan must answer these questions to the nation before engaging in any further dialogue.
Sharif has vowed to leave politics if Imran Khan denies being the ‘third force’, emphasizing that Khan is a product of the same establishment forces that have manipulated Pakistani politics for years.
