Journalist, anchor and vlogger Kamran Yousaf has expressed his analysis on it in an efficient manner while elaborating the key aspects regarding the political future of former premier Imran Khan.
While giving his analysis, he said that Imran Khan was ousted through a no-trust motion after his ties with the military establishment got disrupted. However, the credit also goes to the military establishment, specifically General Qamar Bajwa and General Faiz, who worked on "Project Imran Khan’ and ensured a slot of premiership for him, he added. He further said that Imran could never have become the premier of Pakistan without their support and assistance.
He said that it is true that the relationship between the former prime minister and General Bajwa was badly affected by Khan’s policies regarding the economy. But the major reason behind the tarnishing of healthy ties between Khan and General Bajwa was Khan's conduct with foreign dignitaries and leaders of other countries.
The vlogger said that it has been observed that several friendly countries of Pakistan, including Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Turkey, are not pleased with the policies and conduct of Khan.
He said that Khan neglected a healthy link with Europe and there was a time during his tenure when ties with Europe were almost dead.
The vlogger also stated that the current military establishment and international community do not want Imran Khan to return as Pakistan's prime minister.Not only this, but according to the embassies situated in western countries, the world does not want Khan to become a premier once again. He said that even Muslim countries like Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Turkey were not in favour of Khan. The reason behind this opposition is that Saudi Crown Prince Muhammad Bin Salman not only gave financial assistance to Pakistan but also gave his plane to Khan so he could attend the United Nations General Assembly session, but while travelling on the plane, Khan said some negative things about Muhamad Bin Salman, which were disseminated to the Saudi crown prince.
A similar situation existed with the leaders of the UAE and Turkey. Khan's actions jeopardized the country's strategic relations with friendly countries.
The vlogger revealed that even though Saudi Arabia issued a statement to condemn the assassination attack on Imran Khan, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) tried a lot to ensure a phone call from the Saudi crown prince, but all requests from the PTI were badly denied.
For several reasons, Imran Khan is the most unpopular leader in Western countries. When western countries were withdrawing their military forces from Afghanistan, the president of France expressed a desire to talk to Khan to thank him, as Pakistan also played a role in the evacuation of foreigners who were stranded in Afghanistan, but Khan refused to talk to him. Not only this, Khan also cancelled visits to Britain twice at the eleventh hour. Then British High Commissioner Christian Turner worked hard to finalise those visits that had been cancelled by Khan. Turner also shared his concerns with then-Army Chief of Staff General Bajwa.Upon which General Bajwa also expressed concern and said that he was also not sure why Khan did that.
While mentioning the reasons behind the diminishing popularity of Khan, the vlogger said that Khan’s sympathies with Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) are another reason for the decline in his popularity as the terrorist outfit is engaged in spoiling peace in the country. Khan is behaving like a spokesperson for TTP and suggesting negotiations and dialogues with the terrorist group.
The world is not willing to give loans to Pakistan, and if some are willing, they are offering them on hard conditions. In this situation, if Imran Khan becomes prime minister of Pakistan, the problems for the country will mount quickly.
It is also debatable whether Khan prioritized Pakistan over securing the benefits of the Western world.
