hello and welcome to the program. i'm fully back table. chabarise sharif has been sworn in as pakistan's, new prime minister. the former opposition leader is succeeding iran khan, who was removed from office in a no confidence vote. sharif will not form a temporary government until a general election can be house sometime next year. while he settled into his new office, tens of thousands of iran can't supporters are protesting against his removal. and more than a 100 m. p. 's from con spotty, have also resigned in protest. we'll get to our discussion in just a moment. but 1st, this report from our hider in islamabad, after several weeks of uncertainty, and what was looking like a political rela, bugger on now had a new prime minister there 23rd prime minister, mr. vestry, for sworn in on monday evening. it is important to note that focused on that he can solve the outgoing party, decided to read,
10:35 am
dine and mod from that parliament saying that a good option charges against them acceptable and that they will not continue in a parliament that they consider to be an imported government m, ron han had already been to 8 people to come out on sunday night across the country . tens of thousands of people came out. and what is it? an endorsement of enron constance, that there was a foreign conspiracy to bring down the government to a ward of no confidence. emron would be wanting only elections, but the new party that they didn't follow. and of course, this is an assortment and an alliance of 9 political body that have been able to unite on a single agenda to out them. ron han will be wanting to hold electoral reforms, something that m ron cons party did not agree with the next few weeks and months
10:36 am
will be critical. the budget on that he can solve wants to know the election, but it seems that this new government in islamabad may not be ready for that. this has come on, ida, for inside story, from it some abad. while the incoming administration will need to navigate multiple domestic and foreign challenges, inflation is more than 12 percent and pakistan's foreign debt is at a $130000000000.00. that's 43 percent of its g. d. p. attacks by armed groups have been on the rise and talks between the government and pakistani taliban have failed and it will need to improve relations with the west, which were recently damage when con, accused washington of conspiring to topple him. there's also the kashmir dispute with india security in afghan, his son and the government will need to oversee growing chinese investment. well, let's hear what some packet. sandy's had to say about their new leader and the economy. yes ma'am, that i see only j jack oil garment. all people do not care whose government it is,
10:37 am
whether it's p t i people's party or muslim league, or they want his progress in this country. the main issue is that inflation should be brought down so that the poor man can survive. the middle class is the one that suffers most to white color person gets hit most by inflation. because he has to manage things in such a way that he can maintain and keep up appearances. so whoever comes into power, they should be able to control prices, industry should thrive. there should be overall progress on this or was it is zoom . will you me the again, shall we have hopes from shabazz sharif? he's a good leader and we hope that he'll control prices and god willing he'll be a good leader for the poor. masses in the country will progress ah, less now bring in, i guess, all of whom are joining us from pakistan's capital islamabad. zilkey car buccheri was a special assistant to former prime minister iran con maria eck bar to honor is the
10:38 am
general secretary of the human weiss, wing of pakistan's people's party. and so by egbert is a political analyst and pro rector at the national university of modern languages. thank you for being with us on inside story, maria. let me sot with you. can prime minister chabarise sharif governed pakistan effectively when there is so much widespread afford from it for him, ron kon, from millions of pakistani, especially young pakistan. is there those who say he doesn't have the mandate to govern? what do you say? oh, when you talk about this at all, then you know, always this thing comes into my mind. we are living in a dark gumera and we must not forget how easy it is to manipulate the young mines because sans daughters publish 66 per cent population is of you. and today youth has not been engaged with you or either me or anybody else that when you engage or the phones. so it's very easy for anyone to menu blade or you know,
10:39 am
or to install their own agenda through this no social media. and what we believe in this time actually what has happened? fuck it up, been p t. i came into the government 2018 after that. i think it's been almost 4 years. they used all the government resources and dual menu played to hijack young men. of pakistan, who, you know, to install their own agendas, and this is what we need today because the young people are just not being ready to understand the constitution of pakistan. and what is important about this one is a democracy. and whatever has happened in last few days, nothing has happened on a constitutional, on an undemocratic. of course, no confidence ward or a, you know, i come from a bar debug on people's party and everybody knows when baucus and was only 20 years
10:40 am
old and focused on people's fact he came into being in right when pakistan was 25 years old. so 5 years old pakistan, peebles, by he gave his son. oh, complete constitution. okay. which is our responsibility as a young people to need to implement and to stand by. okay, let's allows zilkey car buccheri to response over. com. maria says the millions of people who come out, the young people who come out in support of enron con, are be manipulated. what do you respond? i think what my, my colleague is trying to say is that boxes of people's party and piano noon. then the government in charge at the moment doesn't have any support from the youth or the masses. i think her entire synopsis of what she's trying to build up is basically saying that nobody has come out for them. the youth is not behind them. and the public mandate is still with ex prime minister in ron hahn. and she
10:41 am
talks about bach science people's party doing so much their chairman who is from send the province of send is still. and if you look at his personal constituency, it's still probably one of the most backward constituencies in the entire country and their grandfather. father, mother himself, have been ruling for decades, and yet haven't been able to give her any progress to their own personal constituency. let alone the country, i think. i think you rightly hit the nail on the head when you started with that he may have got the norco vote confidence in the national assembly by making everyone against one man mannheim. however, do they have the moral authority? do they have the public's mandate? if they do, then the simple question is, why wouldn't any prime minister who has come in now? she has been sworn as prime minister. there is no one on the road rejoicing. there's nobody on the streets celebrating. so why wouldn't the prime minister,
10:42 am
which prime minister with any moral authority would not want to go to election immediately right and shoulder? let me ask that his own countrymen, but why are they on? there's no magic then. if, if you know, if the opposition wants to keep this government and his prime minister honest, why not participate in the political process? why walk out of politics? i'll explain to, i'll explain to you why we believe we are fully aware of that. we have been in government, let me put it like this. we've been in government for 3 and a half to 4 years. when the comma commodity index prices, inflation was through the roof worldwide. it was a sky high. yet the, the p d. m movement could not gather themselves to remove and topple our government. what has happened in the last 30 to 60 days where this i wouldn't call it a super glue, but this magical glue has gel them altogether to top of the government. when the,
10:43 am
when the government is, when the government's ex governments narrative is sky high, what might, what magic glue or what magic conspiracy came in, that got them altogether and toppled, topple it when they weren't even at their louis when we, when our government would as it was at as low as in terms of opinion polls or public polls. they still couldn't manage to do it why we're not asked last bit why we're not participating or, and resigned from the assembly is simply because we feel it's a legitimate government. and us sitting in the assemblies with what we feel a foreign intervention will legitimize you, you injure mcgovern, you having to prove that there was for an intervention. you talk about this for an intervention, accusing the us and so on. and but that hasn't been proven. i'll come back to that in just a few minutes, but i do want to bring in a mr. issa by exile into the conversation. and maria, i'll allow you to respond to what we've just heard from your colleague, mister ig bol. i mean him, ron con, as we've seen, fairly commends. they're fairly large audience,
10:44 am
especially among young people. we've seen millions take to the streets in recent days, and even among members of the military, the young members of the military does it matter what he does next. if these massive protest continue, are we likely to see the military step in as it has in the past? well, the military has its own constitutional role to play and they made it very loud and clear that they are not interpreting into the political process. if i can correct in recall the statement given by the d g i s b r a few days ago when he was of pipeline. but there's not a. 3 matter of getting into things or getting into the prey of the thing, this is a matter of a constitutional process. it has been some allegations level by the box on that he can stop. and the new prime minister mr. shamar should have just pointed out in his 1st speech that we're going to make commission parliamentary security commission and everything would be messy. and he was ballooned enough to say that even if an iota of indication is coming towards us,
10:45 am
that we are placing the barn hands, then he said that he was ready to resign. at that point in time. we must all understand that this was the democratic process and if you count the number of boards, it was the parties which was previously the p t. i and now they have joined hands. been the opposition parties, namely, and boxed on people's party. so it is, it is only both parties be the so called members of the box that you can solve who are not considering their policies in the correct way. they have not voted in this, in this vote of no confidence such a democratic process. and prime minister sharon has said that we are going to go against any, any been debt order or are mixing against a greek against anybody. so if it comes up and his party considers that they should come out on the street, it is their democratic right?
10:46 am
if there's, if it is within the right of the political domains under the law of the land, they must together, they must raise their ways and if they are able to muster that support and the stabilize the government and then push them into the new elections. so be it, but for the moment we must all accept the demo that the process and the lawfulness, right? so we must accept the democratic process. you say, maria, let's talk about the 1st big challenge for this new prime minister and this new government. and that is the economy, the i m f program has been suspended the countries facing enormous deficit on the fiscal side. how will he stay the country? prime minister sharif? we'll be economy. take a different direction from under in mom con. yeah, that's what i wanted to reply because my fellow billy says at time for the celebration. so i had, nobody is supporting sebastian at the moment because my dear, every one 3rd celebration time is over. nobody is dancing on the roads. i knew mom and any with so you know, the caress metric for
10:47 am
a handsome prime minister and all that. this is betty outdated jones, which are openings has been using because it's about the life or for the front. 220000000 people because it's not a tater or a movie or we're not seeking for any drama in this country. we have to be very serious about you know, how we can move forward and, and this time i heard the conversation in maria policy crisis. yeah. lead time. move forward the conversation now because you will disagree with waivers or the car on this. how do we address the biggest challenge right now, which is the economy? how does he or the new prime minister go about doing that? yes, of course. a new prime minister has his own policies, of course, today to yesterday, he has taken all now there parliamentary commissions will be form for the economy. and i'm sure that will be in favor of pakistan because the previous he was been serving as a cm of been job. and since been job is a bid. the half of the population of his son is been residing in is the biggest
10:48 am
province and economic lead a job. it has contributed a lot in the economy as well. so i'm sure they have their own policies, which we will see in the coming days. now at the moment we think it not on economically broadened policies also being at disaster. so what would the disaster the previous government has left, i think is the biggest challenge for the people who has just taken off yesterday and is the biggest challenge for mike is on the bus. barbie. b, emmelyn. and all that i learned is because is a huge responsibility. the common wilson has been expecting a lot from them because a, b, d i is a border of the day of stomach was full of bad bank accounts as well. they're better banks is full today, has nothing to do with the bombing person. bombers and challenges in focus on is very different and for that will have to be a person democratic person, one to send the foster to charlottesville. on miss is economy's party harry told to responded very a little to respond. so we have
10:49 am
a new prime minister now in place that the protest, i mean, i don't know what you feel they're going to achieve. but isn't it in the benefit of all pakistani to move forward now and address this urgent issue that is a tackling and propping up the, the economy? what would you hope then your prime minister will prioritize. i think the, the new prime minister has his hands full a. he's come in on an international conspiracy mandate, which you said that we haven't proven. i just want to clarify that that's completely incorrect. okay. thomas hall causes his household. the note this i, the national security council was called it has all 3 chiefs, the navy, the army, and the air force chiefs under the opposition leaders at the time who are now in power, were all invited to that council or to the national security council. they all refused to come. all 3 serving armed chiefs signed off that they feel that there
10:50 am
was a, an intervention. and that the words and the note used in the meeting held in washington were unacceptable. and hence, the foreign office has written back a de marsh, back to them of talking about a regime change and not willing to work with them. ron hahn and but if, if the government is removed, then all of bach sons are false would be admitted. so this is, this is something we're all 3 chiefs have signed off to and has gone to the supreme court. it was given to the national and national speaker, the because it's a confidential letter. there are certain rules and requirements that need to go about, but they didn't want to see it. they wanted to make sure they avoided it. i'm glad they're in power now and i think go through it. and if they can find a way of making it public, it should be made public so. so to say that his fault is absolutely wrong because has gone through the highest level of security council with everybody sitting there
10:51 am
. and i repeat, the opposition who is speaking now, refused to turn up for that meeting. the thousands and millions of people you see on the roads, not only in boxes, when probably every single country across including door, including a cutter, right? including u e. r. people who are not accepting them when we talk about a democratic, this is a democratic movement. no, it's not. this is an alliance of people who are either on bail or have run or, or their brothers are run away as convicted criminals sitting in london. his brothers, now the prime minister, who is on, on bail himself at the moment, the leader of less box on people's, or the p p. p. himself is internationally known as a criminal. so do understand what this alliance is. it's not democratic, it's an alliance. okay, maria, let's put that to you. i mean, these are, these are law alliances have been historically at log longer has it has to be said with competing interests. how are they going to say united until elections respond to what we've just heard from mrs. over a copy, of course when b
10:52 am
d and small been started in back in september, 1 to $20.00. that was a to assign charter, which a said about gladly that we will enforce and in demand foster tuition we will meet parliament status donna's. we will, we believe in freedom of speech, expression, and assembly, we believe in the democratic governments. we believe in the sovereignty of provisional government. women protect the rights of other peoples of pakistan. we put in for the foreign policy economic policy. and we will respect was our forces as well. so in this government, we saw them made evidence that jewish institute, so all gone to worship that this is the biggest challenge with we see as a political worker that any coming days we have to start from seattle, you know, in the, in the half years of dying when they would the, it, all they did is a,
10:53 am
using their opposition. now the opposition who has taken over and of course people are very happy people of the it, they can see it. but we see that whoever understands pakistan and look at women who have the been presented, people be asleep, didn't know they believe in them. and i'm short in dumbing days after 10 days, or 15 days. if you bought somebody from back is on people's body. pamela, you will see the picture off back is on that, how bob is on is been going. and yesterday we saw a stock index position when the but value for these has gone up. ok, and you know, we need you to spec that in a one day time. did so many things that's been happening. so is a baby government is a just that it's they have it is early days. yes. ok. let's let me break this one by via, i'm sorry, mrs. via wrong for keeping you away for, for some time. now, let me bring you back into the conversation. we've heard from mrs. car buccheri and,
10:54 am
and him ron cons party that the u. s. was behind this effort to push him out even even if his body had good relations with washington at some point, how much damage has that done? you've been to relations with the us and how difficult will it be for the new prime minister to men size? well, if you ask me to be fair, that some damage might have been done because if you are getting into the of domestic politics international, claire's and i must say that this is a very, very dangerous line that a government has stood up on it. and you've been very difficult, not only for this government, but maybe next time in the next collection, if you have in that action and to get back into the government and to sign off the country for the election, or whenever the elections, future elections are held. it's gonna be a bit difficult situation for them to handle, as well as the allegations to all be politicians are concerned. let me say that almost everybody has guesses against them. even the premise, or ron con,
10:55 am
ex premise from wrong on had some cases against him. so is the case with the other leadership in the country. so if i'm not getting into the blame game here, whitehead buck stunning situation is very, very situation has been pointed out. there are of foreign exchange problem. there is an inflation problem. the common man particularly hit by the corporate and all the economic meltdown in pakistan has literally broken their box. it's time to get together. it's time to get some sort of stability into the things. it's time to get out of this historical things. it's time to get together and see the things how they are for the betterment of the people. i must say that the media has all the right to come on to the speed and if they are peaceful and if they are saying that whatever they want to say, and there's a freedom of expression on them that must have all that to say that. but the government has come out of the opposition and now it is their responsibility to do what they have to do with the economic house in the order. some of the indications
10:56 am
that mike, when he was point, noted just one day, i'm not too easy to jump on to those early conclusions because they're of, it's very early days. but there is a very difficult beta. go ahead, dissimulation and focus money. economics by 5 not say that's crisis like, but it is pretty precarious at the moment. the foreign exchange rate is a very, very alarming. let me say that some of the policy is adopted by the previous government. they were really not advisable, as hence they changed the 3 from finance minister over the frame of not more than 4 years. so something has been done, which was not advisable at that point in time. hence these, these economic conditions got out of the hand and everybody accepted the leadership in punjab. even now they are accepting when they're nominated for the delay for the premier trip up and jobs. so everybody knew that be the leadership and punjab was not delivering. and i agree with this, and job is more than 60 percent in terms of population. so if you are not
10:57 am
delivering and job, you're not delivering and focused on some soul searching. sure how to go into the previous coming. they may claim that they have been knocked out of the been hand, but they must look into the thing that to come back into our should not repeat those mistakes we've been doing for the last 4 years or so. all right, we'll leave it back. unfortunately, we've run out of time. i wish we had more time because there's quite a lot to discuss. so thank you so much for joining us, sylvie, combo kerry, maria, a bad time on our end. so bear a bar. thank you. and thank you for watching. you can watch this program again any time by visiting our website and ologist era dot com for further discussion. go to our facebook page at facebook dot com, forward slash ha. inside story. you can also join the conversation on twitter. handle is that a tight story from me fully back to you by the whole team here and thanks for watching bye for the
