of deliberations, bucky stones highest quote has crept a lifetime. ben on politicians with convictions contesting the elections. it really makes it possible for former prime minister. now usher east to take part in the polls for the full time and elections. june, february, his party, the bike is done most levandique now was, is considered the most likely to win his biggest rival, full metric, a 2 and 5 minutes to him on con is sidelined from the upcoming elections. that's of the day he was banned from politics and pakistan for 5 years. following his arrest . i'm corruption charges that he denies both sharif and con, have blame to the military for us to them from power, leading up to his arrest and clicked on on his party, the to rekey and stuff. kind of had publicly criticize on the latest, at a party, riley in 2022. and she always has accused the military of orchestra passing his removal in 2017 over his economic policies and moves to improve relations with

neighboring india. the military has denied it builds that level of political influence, but he's done faces a deepening economic crisis with accelerating job loss is slowing and station and high energy prices. according to its to, to 6 bureau inflation rose by nearly 30 percent in december. the country has received a beta package from the i m f, but that forced it to implement strict will security measures. whoever is the tip. the next prime minister faces an appeal betsel to improve the lives of more than 240000000 people. many of them already struggling with poverty while i have them with zip it out to 0 for inside story. so let's bring it, i guess for today's discussion from as long about we're joined by ro press on the central information secretary of him. wrong kinds of political policy focused on jeffrey in stuff in karachi is the capital of sinned,

providence for joined by mohammed's about who ma, he's the provinces, form a governor representing now where she leaves political policy impacts on listening league. and also in his mom about, we have michelle have his id, the founding part of the advisory services from todd lab at a former advisor to pakistan's ministry of foreign affairs. thank you all for joining us rove. let's start with the what do you make of this decision by the supreme court? the outcome of the decision has political implications. but why now just a month out of the election. so choose, uh, you know, the whole time bakers has caught me so it did not come as a surprise to us. this is part of the logic conspiracy. you know, that just started with the bank on government back in april, but back within 41. and since then, and things have been moving, you know, it'd be direction, that'd be good. they what this is all about of, uh, all the what peach in the data but, but still on the line. uh,

between these got percent and no actually i started on funding at all when the government funded around con stomach was supposed to go. and then they've been going to taking the subsequent specialist and will go unable to have to come back to microsoft and then take part in the, in the next election. so as to be minded as the, as the king. unfortunately, the institutions of the country have been completely liquidators have but what really they don't exist any longer at this juncture by the door. uh, we have 5 done. that's the center and the book problems on the full problem. because all of these governments are and wants to do something really good because they have to be on the menu to be entered a bank to do selection. the thought that has expired of the constitution, not stipulations, but that that constitution has been, has been, has been, you know, rubbish, time and time again. the institution of the state as uh, as paid at each go to stipulations contains that. so you're not surprised, you know, and it just trying to discover,

detect disjuncture. but because it's important to know to bring it in. uh does that does work be reached at like the bench dated uh the uh, in the, in the process. i must say, uh that the law practically has been kicked off the scene here in the country for a long time to kind of uh, the fact to know that i'm sure you guys do take this country. you know, it was a is a proven data. and nobody had any doubts about it. what the case was supposed to know uh about 5 by 678 years ago. uh, he was not able to provide any oh, all the income that you generated that your daughters or would it be there to fall almost 2 decades. okay. and it was on the basis of back and all that was he was he was, he was sick, best buy. what? well that does, this is an extra rough for the just just a complimentary also very quick quickly. uh, 5 to 6 days. uh all these cases happened, did no, i need to speak to dave park the direction then i'll get to the top of steve, just some fortunate. okay, all right, well how much is about?

oh my, you had the, the accusation that malware should be fluted the country. how will voters in breakfast on view, the supreme court ruling actually the 2 things button is uh. ready uh, the hosting it says theories, the link that says and this and the why fi was disqualified for the night. that was in 2017. and i feel deep drummed up jobs. i think that's the road. but if you had to go on to the ruling, it was not based on any blundering of money. this be important never, it was said, it is based on the bench and the money. it was sort of very, very, is a simple lot to have it. but i'm sorry to interrupt, i mean if you're saying that the charges against no is shenice with trump top and then surely the charges against him, ron carter, also trump top. so let me finish about missing advice about this particular decision of his being bored when he was just going to fight for. like, if you read the 0 must have read the they, it should be say,

is that there was that that is see you. but from his sound send read, which visit know i seemed faint to disclose is or does stress. it does not. if this is a game and you can imagine any way into what it would not even invite to an account and delete the mode and hit the button. when is the free time? brian, when is the was leaking? because do cindy elected ad would enjoy the majority in the bottom and was thrown out for the light so that he cannot do in the bone. it takes there to think about it. first, the disqualification it says staples of jumped up down to the 2nd thing is no one in the box and agreed to this thing that any but addition, but it isn't the same. it all done tomorrow should be disqualified for the night. and it's not just missing the y c. who will benefit auto disposition. it is also mr . john giving it to the end who was a very close id or very close politician in the,

by the open setting. wrong side was all service qualified for like so he also benefits. he guides another package with days. so he also benefits. and this was never something that anyone in boxes, then they'd be and you must also go through the boxes to detail the history with the discovery, the 1st cause. now, many of the positions that the, of course, that they come in the boss separate that gets, know on the bus, including the decision to hang the former prime is services or regarding the book book is being heard what the 45 years. okay. often he was because everyone wants that just it shouldn't be done even if it does extend it. that thing was wrong. all right, but a shot of i'll call come to just about that. i'll just want to give a rise of reply. that's at the roof, that very quickly ro what do you want to work above what the judgment have said, basically, you know, does not talk to the ice so far as i'm concerned these days. that the fact that all the us that you take this country under this country all at once, but it to,

to has 3 states and 5 is an established strategy. why is it that he was not able to do anything before the court, but for the 1000000000 to know that he has? why is it that he was not able to produce any, any proof before the board for the properties that wish properties that he has a purchase order for the work? why is it that he was not it was approved by is it that you submitted a fig? like i thought the letter by said that he got the funding used up. fig. uh uh. can you please font uh before have a day they have to redo the electric, was reduced to the quote at all. the guidance gonna be part of the party bus up or get the so introduced into boxes. all these facts it, there needs to be bought. uh, any, anything i mean, anybody wants will scans up to defend the bundled or no because he is doing it at the cost of dust different this got too much after that. just a mess up. sorry to keep you waiting. we will get to you in a moment, but i would just just come back quickly on that and actually started investing service. the roof is uh, obviously uh, dealing that's why i missed that. i know why she was punished with all the weight

to the actual reality he was, but this was disqualified for life simply on the basis of it. and if i'm wrong, that someone should have that beacon corrected or otherwise he was button is does going to fight for life because he did not show that one is the holding that he did not show up to see you. but virginia from an accounting standpoint, but i just didn't, but he wasn't, that was supposed to reflect as an individual, as a z u, but, and he was there despite 1st the, the nature of the management of the nature of the car. and it was listed. and then the, the, the, the, the punishment itself to buy someone for a lifestyle or that you cannot do politics to have a okay, shut off. i'm sorry to keep you waiting. i have now a shelby's been treated unfairly by the quotes in pakistan. was he the victim of a miscarriage of justice to to what extent was the supreme court racing and injustice? yeah. and if so, what about the treatment of inbound con? how, how did people view his treatment? look at it, regardless of how many times us partisans of one or the other party

a in this country? the answers are always going to be the same. the supporters of nevada cities will rightly feel vindicated by the correcting of what is the entire process was deeply biased and prejudiced against any chance of nevada city's being able to govern the country that he was elected to govern in 2013. and these games didn't begin with the, with the court case that emerge from the panama leaks these games begun. the day he was elected and there was a whole, uh, a whole sort of, a massive uh, sort of readings of evidence that indicates that the can span. so you to get rid of nevada city, but you know, 3 days to panama. so this court case, you know, happened to be kind of the end zone for sort of a,

a process that began much earlier. similarly, the process to get rid of them wrong, fine began the moment uh, the military. the very military that brought them around assigned to power, decided that it didn't want to concede the rightful powers of the prime minister to the prime minister. and wanted to retain a key decision making around the key appointments and around key relationships with buckets on. as within the domain of the military, ultimately the, to my mind, when i listen to and, and both these men are really in sons of boxed on whether it's ro pass on or is a bad omen. and they've tried to serve boxed on over many years through different sort of ways. and obviously they've chosen different political parties to try and build up this country. but just to remind viewers what this country is, this is one of 2 countries on the planet that still has the polio virus that it's

fighting. this is a country of 250000000 people with a median age of 23, in which the debate we're having today is about whether a 74 year old is guilty or innocent, or 71 year old is guilty or innocent. meanwhile, the median 23 year old buck a stunning woman or man, are up the creek without any prospect for serious economic growth in the near future. with an almost certain death crisis that is hanging over the heads of every decision maker in this country with a massive security crisis, he will not only by the thought of bonds, desire to expand its influence beyond the borders of upon his bond. but also the hindus supremacist and hate mongering in uh regina in india, that has been on a mission to punish, focused on pre existing. uh, this is the scenario within which the focused on the people are subjected to

a political contests between a 74 year old and a 71 year old. neither of whom have any real answer from august on both of whom are the product of the military's interventions in bucks tons, paula took. so what, what you're saying the shut off is that the bucket starts political system is, is failing. it's people. uh, how do you fix that though? while i think the starting point is that politicians need to be able to run for office without the fear of knowing that they will eventually be facing a j del term. i think as long as this kind of an antagonism between popular leaders and the military establishment continues, we'll continue to have this cycle. it, it shouldn't be lost on anyone. the irony of iran con, facing indictments in cases that are largely, broadly as bogus as the case is that no,

i city was 1st convicted for and then let go for. but i was, as you heard, chevy 74 and we're on kind of 71. and the median age in pakistan is 23. it should be freely the mind that the electric one to put that face in to improve the loss of why comp practiced on off of the electorate. candidates who have more in common with the countries demographics. what unfortunately, i have never been in the election and boxed on that has been intervention from these patterson. and that has infected beast with the passage of time, particularly off to the exit of general the shuttle. um, if, if, but they're not, you know, on single questionnaire, not just i've just, just, just 11 thing to be done, old free expense, and into selections. what equal level blank feed on, and see all the people of this country want to be acted as survivors. i tried that everybody was the boats. anybody other been involved being show that feed fat and

inclusive election that has been stuck and let the people decide. this is what the dash that's for and different fortunate these being did i not just die, but the people at the factory well being increasing the different projects. i would like. i can vote would have been pulled off of evidence and i supported what i'm saying. but i do, i don't think b, b to dine with permit me to do that. but you wouldn't, you know, if people what, what has happened in the last couple of months. it's going to do an extension of people coming up. people had been having good, now people have tortured, they haven't both to convict a pretty good loyalties. what, what, $10000.00 people of the book and change being denied beans that are people in that group and what will happen for us to be pretty times, but to go spend the rest it. and some of the kids said, some of the big book is some of the problem this gets big in big and be in the games that again, that is to keep up. and it has to be the strip 30 times up to 30 times and bunch of

are done. all other people have been registered, multiple, a rouse, do you want, do you wanna come to the bank? because we did the do you want us to say just take a minute, just the level being fee to speak to that you're not allowed. anybody to go to get with you. this isn't up. you want uh, surfing on the surface, one of which is being presented to the body. so consequently, what i want to say is this be the, it's, it's be all history. they have already decided that, that, that the cheapest thing to be the next time is corporate country and everything is being done. some of the dates that beat the gods, b, b, b, administer should be part of that is very important that we develop prepared and impulsively mohammed is about what do you make of jack before before i put another question to you. i mean, there are 2 things, the 1st is what drove is demanding is at the moment and there should be no disagreement to that, that box and needs a pre fade and prostate and election and inclusive election back to those everybody

including the box that, that he gets off of this, they've gone back to $40.00, paid without any problem. the debate in bucks sent today is very interesting. and what much as i said, he was simply do is absolutely spot on the issues that people have boxed and not district go to theater. wards, but he will attend the attorney 5 years or bucks that he's the dad and just let them just not a vote who is more cut up and who is going to drop. i been missing the why should even the steps that are on, on the problems that box and faces today a large meet because i'll make and switch and or doubled up in the nature of for example, lack of education level has of care system being drinking. what the very basic problems, the amount of boxes that it is under a body line, is that good the. so the problem is that box and it has to be as much. but unfortunately, the big, the inbox send today is with a 2018 election was more the other one that is coming up in 1550. it is going to be

more ticked. so it's going to be, it's not that the b, b, i, people did not have the effect that they would have what they, what was happening in 2018 and demanded in which they were brought into. but they were fine with it. then nobody would look back to say that what is happening with, with that then building party bucks that most indeed the way it was uh, butchered in the way the thinking was done. a point, a phase of uh, changing bought it. it can 96. it is a roofer, was mentioning then died of probing of doing just dont like that but one night the light is of the dad, the holding party then the link by the box. it was the last was changed to a new party that was created when i it is that it's been going on with boxes. but guess i totally agree with the civil that i've sent me is not to spend bank in comparing with a 2018. was bed or buzz or i'll tell them, but the fluid is going to be because we need the fit been election to have that

ability with everyone, including those. i'd say bucksta. if, if now i show these becomes pregnant, i stuff the 4th time the next month is isn't gonna say out his, his is full time. how long will people on the military give him to turn around the economy and improve the loss of people if it, what would your advice be to him and for the 2 days to a box and has been very, very bad. no problem. and so his last 5 years uh, typically use the facility and encourage the problem and it says actual in the door to the move to get done unfortunately. but you can make out that it's not just going out. it's in to buy it and you got the cases that gives them the jamming and the references that goes around with the this is going to be a new in a box on this the but i don't know. i can see the problem is that the box of this is did this score this, but there is definitely going to be some fiction between various institutions in the box. the problem in this office the what seem that he has to be elected the

business of the mandate of the people a box. so it has given him any must decide based on those uh what, what he thinks is that i agree of that box that you move forward. whether the military but if given enough space for the hold. so people demanded. but then he looked back and it's could to be a new bug sign. if that happens, we'll shut off a, you know, actually becomes a prime minister. next month is, is he the man to turn around the, the economy to improve the losses of pakistan's people? a why this, this sense of perpetual crisis? this does impact a start, what, what's different about pakistan, what it would seem that there is similar political systems in both india and bangladesh are able to deliver for the people are absolutely right. is not just india or bangladesh. you have a military dominated, uh, political uh, sort of situations or ecosystems like indonesia that has been going from strength

to strength over the same to 2 decades. where boxed on has been going from strength to weakness and weakness to further weakness. you have countries like turkey that were complete basket cases economically, where the military was dominant, where capable political leaders enacted a series of reforms that not only grew the economy, but also arrested control off matters that should be in the civilian hands, away from the military and 2 civilians, so i guess the question that your viewers would have or that you've asked is, what is unique about boxes on that doesn't seem that this doesn't seem to happen. and i think part of the answer is the utter incompetence of lack of imagination, of the political leadership itself. the reason these parties are not talking about education or human capital. the reason they're not talking about the impact of artificial intelligence on the uniquely st credit islamic and muslim culture and

buckets done. the reason that people in this country and the political circles amongst the lead, are not talking about tax reform, and instead are constantly looking to secure flights to re, uh, the or to other dobby or to door to secure uh, the next uh, easy term loan from one of the gcc benefactors that this country has had for many decades. there is a reason for that. and the reason is that these issues, the issues that really matter for the people of boxed or they don't have any answers for these issues. they don't have any thing tends within the political parties. these are not issues that page or bother, or drive or inform the day to day pain points off our key political parties and our biggest and most important political leaders. having said all this, where it is a responsibility for, to reading, nurturing,

tolerating, sustaining, getting rid of, and then bringing back these very politicians lie. that responsibility lies on the military establishment that has consistently well sought and secured the best quality of political liter for this country shots, regardless then of who wins the election next month. do you fear that another period of martial law in progress? not as is more or less than editable, and i don't think that the instrument of engagement for the military any longer needs to be martial law. i think that because of the incompetence of politicians and their lack of imagination, the military can very easily exercise total and complete control over key areas of the economy and diplomacy and policy that it wishes to. i think my complaints or, or my, my sort of mind pain point is that in doing so, it isn't,

or it hasn't yet at least demonstrated the kind of quality or confidence that would justify people to say, you know, what, the politicians are incompetent, but hey, the military's got this now when it comes to national security, i just wanna make this one key point right when it comes like not good. when it comes to national security, there is no army or, or military in the world that has been able to do what bucks on a military officers and soldiers do on a regular basis. so when they do their job, they do an amazing job. the problem is when they do the politicians job, they do about as good a job as the politicians and that doesn't serve buckets. it's very well it. all right. we've got about 30 seconds for each of the ro fund habits about a basically, i think what we, what, what, what was shot if we're saying there is, the pakistan will never succeed economically. politically, until the military is, is, is out of the picture right, of what i would not like to about cost, especially that any big leader at this point of time or like watch on pga wants is

bad pocket sponsored have. but once 3 bad and most of next without any outside into that, it's a doing from the stop by that is easier said than done because the military has, by can, by convention is always been that they have to throw the box on for all this up to 60 is either directly or indirectly truly, all right, to, to the account. so position and position to above. and final thoughts plays from mohammed's about wilma. so yeah, it's very simple. i think we all agree on the concepts in a box and handling solution every part. it can be the product to buy these committed to establishing the constitution in same book and which and that goes specifically and supplements and reaches that they be controlled for the energy. and i think of the bone, these other 2 to buy all in solution, including the military. i think that the office would be the best going forward. thanks to all i guess, ralph house on the homicides about who my and my shut off is 80 and thank you to

for watching. you can see the program again at any time by going to the websites of elders 0 dot com for further discussion. join us about facebook page at facebook dot com, forward slash ha inside story. as you can join the conversation on x on handle a page right inside story from the adrian. so they can the same here and they'll how will see you again, bye for the what constitutes exempt. so we generally talk to a see i want you to start with just the fence rose to what happened as independent . we want these, we want the education, my wants to be the we don't have lead them in the policy of it's meant to get 50 percent representation and accountability and benefit. no 1000 service this claim and then you're saying you don't have your
