Pakistan is seeking to expand its relations with both the U.S. and China, the chief of the country’s powerful army said, two days after Prime Minister Imran Khan accused the Biden administration of planning to oust his government by backing a no-confidence vote against him in Parliament.
Former cricket star Khan has been hyping up an issue of secret threats by the U.S. to topple his government by aiding the country’s opposition groups, who have moved a no-confidence motion against him. State Department spokesman Ned Price has said there was “no truth” to the allegations. The army chief’s comments are seen as significant because the military has ruled Pakistan for about half of the nation’s existence, and enjoys an outsized role in its foreign and security policies.
In an interview with ARY television on Friday, Khan said he is willing to call early elections if he survives the no-confidence vote, a suggestion put forward by the country’s “establishment,” a term normally referring to the Pakistani army. Khan said he won’t resign and stands behind his decision to visit Moscow and meet Vladimir Putin just hours after the Russian leader ordered troops into Ukraine. Khan has also criticized the European Union for asking Pakistan to condemn the Russian attack.
