hello welcome to the program. i'm adrian sent again, the can only be one when i, but already to form a prime minister say they've come out on top and practiced ons, parliamentary election. one of the wrong con is in jail, protesting his innocence of the convictions for corruption and other charges. he and his studies the insightful p t i. policy were bought from running, but independent candidates loyal to him, one at least 100 of the 266 seats in the national assembly. the focused on listening lead now was policy led by. com is main. bravo. i'm 3 time prime minister . now what shenice k next with 71 seats. so each says he's starting talks about forming a coalition. the foreign ministry is strongly rejected criticism of the vote by the u. s. and e, you insisting that it was peaceful and successful. so where does all this leave breakfast on? what next for its people and a country with serious economic difficulties as well as deep political divisions will be asking, i guess these questions more in just

a few moments besides to report from image in kimball. now about sheree times victory of those days, genuine election impact of stone. despite his pma, then policy failing to win most seats in parliament. as we don't have enough of the majority to form a government on our own, we're going to invite allies to come and join us and will form a coalition government. it's independent politicians affiliated with a jail full, with prime minister in mind, called to one of my seats. and they've declared victory to yesterday. you laid the foundation for how kick is already using artificial intelligence on the cardboard cost, a message to his supporters out from behind balls despite 2 years of injustice and a trusted these we have won the 2024 election with a 2 thirds majority. everyone has witnessed the power of your vote. know,

demonstrate the strength to protect your vote. the success of cons candidates comes despite him being jailed on corruption and other charges. he says that politically motivated and fabricated by the pocket stony minute to leadership. his p t policy was bought from running, forcing candidates to stand his independence rallies and annoying events with band, as well as the p t. policy symbol, creating particular difficulties. the vote is unable to read, who would normally use policy logos to make that choice on the ballot paper. policy officials said the restrictions with directly targeted support is always gonna be in a point to figure out what. but i need to position the a 100. we are in position to govern in at least a 3 provinces, but the process of engineering is still going on. and their effort is to stop us from sharing and the government. but it looks up as well as allegations of faith, banking and finance. in the lead up to the elections, there was a total mobile phone shut down and an unexplained denay and the delivery results

pulled up. we were taking it back when the election results changed over night. how does the table turn in favor of the p. m. a. land. all the people had voted for english con. you must realize this was not an election. it was a selection on a video to make sense. the p. p. p. paul t a been a while bluetooth dory came in, but he's from a political tennessee. his mother then is a big time as prime minister before her assassination in 2007. his grandfather, ali bhutto, was president and prime minister and was executed in 1979 up to the minute tracy's paula and the key. no appointment is the impact of stone 76 year history is finished a full time in office. the ministry has been and remains the most powerful political force in the country. meanwhile,

the people are facing increasing levels of unemployment, poverty, and inflation. with the economy still reading from the carpet pandemic, and catastrophic floods. imaging kimber, which is 0, the inside story. well, we reached out to them as all the pack stumbles and legs and it was party to join the program today. but unfortunately, no one was available. so let's bring in our guests from dubai. in the united arab emirates with joined by sophie bacardi, who's the advisor on international media relation to say, i'm wrong. com, but chairman of the pakistan creek and soft policy from cambridge in the u. k. if i was on a shake, who's associate for the at the asia pacific program at the try some house think tact come from the back to study city a full time. we have with us height is along. got a shea who is a member of the central executive committee of the pakistan people's policy will welcome to you o 0 feet. because a, let's start with you. what message for the people sending to the establishment by

electing so many independent candidates a? well, we had this slow going for the past 6 months. is the go button on the board say, and means, you know, we're going to take revenge for the crew to buy at the ballot on our boat. and that's what the people in the box on did, the turn out of the selection and the results. so this selection, regardless of all the rigging, regardless every, all the seats that are in contention, still it's obvious to the people and to the world that inbound hon has a defeated or od. i was sitting in prison. i haven't sophia, i, i, are you absolutely certain that all of the independent candidates selected are indeed affiliated with the, with the pga, peachy i, yes, i said it would be, i mean, you might have maybe 4 to 6 which are independence in their own right. not affiliated

with the p t i but you're, you're very close to the 100 figure. if it's not more met, don't forget we have a 100 petitions and appeals at the moment of going through as well. and if we went even 30 percent of them are 20 percent of them. that's another 2013 seats, which gives us majority 1st on us to shake of how much of a shock with the results of, of the selection for the establishment. as the ministry perhaps for the 1st time back, the wrong horse as well, by all accounts, that's precisely watch it. it looks to be these results are, are astonishing. and what so yeah. is the way in which millions turned out to do to defy what was why do you reported as the ministry establishment designed out . com, a clear wind for it's for it's for the candidates, the last to be a leader of thought of the boxes on my skin league. i add,

i think you know what a lot it confirms which cost is walk. many opinion bowes have pointed to, which is to say in wrong cons up up to our t amongst the majority of focused on these. but i think it also points to the deep frustration of, of a population that really is desperate for change. desperate for a new government to address, in particular to the a, to what it could on a crisis that currently faces the country. all right, we're, we're bringing the ida is on collision just a moment, but, but sophie dope nodding vigorously that you want to come in and you know, she's absolutely right. there are different rivers that lead to this big mouth of water which, which is the outcome of the election. but, you know,

the end result is, is that people want to change. and during this whole period, i was often asked by international media and people from within bucks on that. why they're not moving protests, wind to bucks, and he's coming out against the oppression that they're facing, the jail to torture the kidnappings, the killings. and the answer was always that we're just waiting for election day, and we know that people will have a soft river lucian via the ballot. and that's exactly what has happened a hi, this is an on crazy. no actually says that that his party will now try to do a deal with other policies to full the government to what extent is, is your policy playing king make here? which way? when a go talk to andrea and a lot of in the things have been discussing in your report and by the other guest saw on the show. first of all, uh uh yes, a box on people, spotty, was the 1st one. and thirdly, uh democracy is the best revenge thats the slogan box on people. spotty gave to the

nation and very i'm very happy that the people are focused on have voted and bent it out to whatever you may say, frustration or their anger and whatever was happening. but the box on people's party was the 1st party which openly demanded the election day, but you openly demanded the election schedule, which was the 1st one to give a manifesto the comic chart to begin with the 1st one to off for 11 playing field for all the parties and it was by virtue of that pressure and then the course, but also, you know, for us to give a sizable, a number of for relief to be in other candidates. but having said that, there's no the 1st time any outgoing government has a certain challenges or convictions and cases in boston, 2018. robin amber on con, uh, was about making it for the problem. and again, uh they, they themselves, that i got to a support from the very core to is that criticizing now in

a dying female and need a she was convicted and on the receiving end. so one wrong doesn't justify the other one. but as he's done today, let me one clarify one particular aspect, the, the number of independent which b t i n a cross section. i'm sorry we, we, we seem to have lost a height of for the month. it was, we'll try and get him back. and we're having some problems with the line, so that's pick, pick up. i'm with result, you that on, on what height it was saying what, what do you make of, of what type of thing or i think mr. had is a michael, revolted against what he was rebel as well. like most of the population of the country. um, look at the, at the reality is, is that despite everything is now, is as clear as what your people have come out. b t i has a 100 odd seats. it doesn't matter what power games anyone wants to say at the moment if it wants to be king make or if it can, if it wants to form

a government it can. but having said that, we are very didn't did it in the watching what to do next. and we feel that we will get up, you know, there's been such a blatant rigging even and why she's on the constituency. what she had lost to doctor yesterday in russia. it was a former minister of health, she's in prison as well. and it went to the polls would cost it at 70 percent. she was 15000 votes ahead. and all of a sudden pulling stopped. and he won by 50000 votes, which is unexplainable. but because he's not very good at match his p 45 form, which the tale of all the votes showed that more people voted than actually the registered voters. okay. couldn't even tell. yup. okay. so data, it's alright. well yeah, we have, we have high to high to back high to yeah. do you want to, you want to kind of idea and i, i didn't think of the migrant loaded as ot said, i think what your research team should do and most of the p t i, people should candidly admit, well, uh the p

d i back candidates are the ones who are awarded tickets by peachy, i offer sure party. and there are more than 2 to 3 dozen candidates who have been elected in the defendant on the national assembly. and in various provincial assembly pock hassan who would not be back candidates. in fact, they have a truly independent candidate and now they're saying that all of the independence and as it is being reported, i think that's a fallacy. and that is a mistake on all the independence or not p d. i backed candidates. there are dozens of independents who have no need young's auto relationship with the t i. they are indigenous, the independent even been defrauded the nomination papers. right. so that's one part. the other part of the argument is please adrian. let me just to complete my thought process. the 2nd part is we want the 1st one. you wouldn't be either 40 wouldn't be d, i could say, an demonte level playing field and where the people's bodies, german, beloved. but the body is, is democratic credentials. and i'm sorry we really having problems with the, with,

with a line that to a little town with both will come back to you again. hi to an in just a moment. let's bring it in 1st on a shake, then that one of these independents. now the, the, the $100.00 seats that the, the peachy eyes claiming what, what basically votes for them. how can it dependence for a government? because i mean that, but then all the political policy. so, so what happens next as well, you know, it's, it's, it's very interesting because of course, in most, in most democracies offering elections, you know, the largest faulty steps forward to form the government. but of course, in the case of focus on this is going to be more complicated because as we know, the group, let's quote it back because it isn't strictly a party. the group of, of independence. yeah. you know, whether or not backed by the mainstream,

both your know. * our attorney not going to be give them the chance to have a decisive say informing the next government. and really, you know what, what we've seen in the, in the exchange between your 2 other guess is that the see the set for frenetic, horse trading. and that's precisely what i think many of us expect to see. i'm the horse trading of course, means that there is likely to be a prolonged period of political instability. something that focused on can really no longer afford, give them the immense challenges. but i would really like to put to lee or to other guess whether or not they are going to respect the voters who not only want to change, but you also want to add and to the divisive rhetoric. oh, on political parties, across the political spectrum. for political parties to come together and to look

to just uh to so, so the office of immense john and you'd, i'd like to book an exception to that, that we can't find this phone just reading the page. the white horse trading is very, very impolite to use in 2 days parliamentary language. i think the lady should go to the left on her law within the constitution of law cosign which mandates every elected member to join a body. if the rich to do so within 72 was feeling which best address would become independent. and nobody is an, even in western democracies, people who get independently elected either they chose to stay independent or they go with the warning body or whatever the economic manifestation. and the agenda is, i think the gave the hoss reading of gone, god become 60 is the, it is a very much in the constitution once they are on the parliamentary spent of a body and their vote against a, in a money made or a lot of confidence for the prime ministers in action. it is then when they are,

these need it and he had an example in 22 and you don't when the democratically elected government was lifted out by the medium government last year. so to say that the independent candidates choose to go to another party in which the moment they ask them to do within 72 hours. if the chose to do so, they wouldn't be doing that for some gratification or other gains up and become a symbol of cost reading. i think that's good. okay, well we'll, we'll kind of pick that up in just a moment, but height a way back to the 1st question i asked you, you, you, you're actually swept around that. you didn't, onset is your positive p, p, p. go to go into connection to the connection with a piano and the web offers choice. and as you have any reliable during the course of interviews, the for the elections categorically said once bitten twice shy box on people's body woods. first off of the decision and choice would be to make

a government with the help of uh, independence and other like minded bodies excluding html. and because we've had a very, very bitter experience in the last, the outgoing government. and we feel that audit cannot make agenda the way we want to handle the economic affairs is absolutely different to how the admin and wants to address the problems. and may be that if maybe i know shows some democratic majority and scale. beacon have of overlapping area where we can go put a n n a a and you know, mix and form. and you know, government have a minimum jock up their minds because cheap august on people's bar. david about 6576 that we, we hold the swing speed, the i without any goal, asian wagner. and that's why you cannot make a government or not can be a 1000000 and bucks on people's body if it feels it is. busy is not getting the kind of coalition we probably would like to sit in the opposition party is mulling

over the idea of engaging, you know, meeting independence. we are meeting or the coordination partner. and if the mainland is also reach to us, but the, i think in the go to the next $40.00, but we would, oh, yeah. and i would want a little fee to do to prevent up on the decision makers. part of his body said fucking people's bodies has more democratic credentials. we don't have a lot of venom already into the body. you is extended and launched or beat by the nature of global. okay, now find a better government. and i, and i knew let's, let's, let's give sophia a chance to come back on that before i put a question to him. sophie, it was located, it is not wrong in, in many aspects. um, but the fact of the matter is, is that we believe at the moment with the challenges and the appeals we have for about a 100 or candidates that if they are even relatively fairly perfect and i mean relatively, then we will win in majority. anyways, we have, like i said, we have over

a 100 seats, which are appealing, which are appealing with clear evidence. so in that case, we wouldn't really need to be an ally of any other party. the other thing is, this was on a pointed out earlier that a lot of people and it kind of touches on the point of what mr. heather said about horse trading and independence. all of our independence have come on demand data in non con, they've come into the mandate of change. they've come, come on the mandate of the oppression we've seen of the last 18 months, so which b b p has been a part of not directly, but because they've been part of a pdf government while it was all happening to us. and so hence it step oppression is that frustration is the economic issues, it's inflation, it's all of that combined, which people look at towards us. so unfortunately, i use the word unfortunately, people always by the people be looked at as a party of one of the older schools that of the traditional parties which are part of the corruption scandals and everything of the sort. i'm not saying,

but i would go to has any i think he can create a very big legacy for himself moving forward if he moves out the shadows of his father. but at the moment it would be impossible for pediatric tied up with any of these 2 bodies as it stands today. forgot to shake um what are the implications of this for the ministry? how dangerous of a moment is this for the countries, the ami leaders and, and all they going to get involved at any time in the near future? well, i think, you know, anyone who believes that the army is going to step back from interference and the political process is, is, is going to be a disappointed, i don't think the, the mid a tree is quite ready yet to go back to the barracks uh, so i think, you know, that's, that's, that's clear now, but i think what, what is so revealing about these elections is, uh, is the massive intelligence stay. yeah. i mean play the military. oh,

it's good engine. yeah. the outcome of these elections and i would be surprised actually if some months down the line we don't. yeah. of some kind of badge. some people being made. c c do some people being made accountable inside the ministry for not having anticipated such a massive sect right in the middle tree. he's got to do that because i don't know what should be buried. his long running feud with the military in order to return from exile a to run into selection is something that right now gonna look again at him. wrong . com. do you think i'm going to be seeing him wrong car? do you think being freed from jail any time in the near future? it was, you know, the many of the cases against mr. han as a, as, as we know have been widely reported as the cases back. what politically motivated,

many of them uh, you know, um are, are known to be full of holes and, and, and these will go to higher quotes which were no doubt want to put many of these cases on the scrutiny. i wouldn't want to rule that out. um, you know, the ones i would want to rule out a release at some point of missed a call from prison. but i think one of the things that we need to address is, unfortunately the history of a history of a 1st. so between those between which the con, i'm the army chief general awesome laneer. these, these are, are, are to see goes who is dislike for one another i think is now pretty well established. and i think it's going to be very difficult unless there is a real political will on the part of the political parties to set aside a general also news grievances with ms. con,

booked to put their heads together and to deal with the problems that face the country. okay, we've, we've got just a few minutes left. i just want to get a quick reaction from zillow. see that before it come to you? hi there, very quickly. it's sophie you yeah, for the spot on and in what she's saying. and i agree with was on honest a heather about the fact that right now, whatever we've done in the last 2 years of being on the streets. and having this agitation where you can say politics and not even was absolute oppression towards us and hiding eggs out, torture, prison, all of that. but we're going to take our politics to the parliament. if we can form a majority government ourselves, we will do that. otherwise, we will form the strongest opposition the countries have seen and will sit in parliament and oppose politically as political part to do with one another. and what may be will come through parliament, okay, and the height of regardless of which way the p, p. p goes, the country set for a hung parliament. what are the implications of that for economic recovery and

stability? will people accept the government led by now actually as well. uh, as of now it seems a bit difficult that they would probably accept to us as the less that even you see because the economic stability is tied up with political stability and political harmony. and going back to the point, which was honest said, i think one perspective, she said the other perspective is that of seeing the know the and good and seeing the sentiment of the people are focused on. it is quite possible that this election was not maneuvered by the way the establishment is being blamed on occasions, perceiving it that way and, and it must just of that is the b d i back candidates are showing a sizable number of users and they, they, they have a claim and legitimate case, or maybe the far right of 1st refusal to make the governments haven't, haven't attempted that, but focus on people, spotty fees, and that's worthy of campaign and our gym. and the dog has said,

diamond again. that'd be, i should join hands with boxed on people's body. they can have a drive. if they can make myself the majority, they are the would, we would accept that the accepted him as the prime minister select even in the last parliament the except maybe a handed out article for the issue of on economic side. but i think it was not reciprocity. i noticed implicity was shown on even today we would have on people's bodies and b, d, i to work for a better understanding of the bottom of it. all right, great news coming from lucy that finally they've decided to come back to the bottom and they had haha park as long as they're present ation. and they walked off which was very sad for democracy. entertain already. all right, hold on for meeting i, i'm sorry, we're almost out of time to skip the final water. turns on after what we've discussed over the last 25 minutes or so. regardless of who wins, what are the chances of them seeing out a full time as well? the doctor remains to be seen. any soc is on has

a very just little history on the on that front. but i really am very hard to get off of your, your all the guests representing 2 different political policies that they intend to or to, to, to re. 6 to part of the central role that it should enjoy under the constitution of focus on something that neither party unfortunately has respect to the boss. okay. that we understand it. manufacturing bainsville feet because they forgot to shake a height is on, on crazy for being with us. today, as always, thank you for watching. you can see the program again at any time by going to the website of ours is 0. don't com. for further discussion, you can join us on our facebook page. you'll find that at facebook dot com forward slash 8 inside story out. of course, you can join the conversation on x or handle that a h, a inside story from the adrian fed again, the same here. we'll see you again. bye for now. the
