Civil-Military Leadership On Same Page: Fawad Chaudhry

Fawad Chaudhry
Federal Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry has said that this time both civil and military leadership of the country are on the same page and shares the same book.

Fawad Chaudhry said this in a TV show following the meeting between Prime Minister Imran Khan and Chief of Army Staff General Qamar Javed Bajwa at the GHQ.

The information minister said that the PM Imran Khan was briefed over the counter-terrorism operations during his meeting with the military high-command and said that the premier had a positive meeting with the army chief.

“PTI’s government will take into account recommendation of security institutions in policy formation,” he said. “PM Imran will make the decision in view of the interests of Pakistan.”

The information minister, when asked his comments over the coming US Secretary of State’s Islamabad visit, said that the United States is confused on whether it would stay in Afghanistan or not.

“The secretary of state is coming. We will see how much clear he is in his thoughts,” said Chaudhry.

"It feels very tense," said 35-year-old mother Risa Kusuma, comforting her feverish baby boy at an evacuation centre in the gutted coastal city of Palu. "Every minute an ambulance brings in bodies. Clean water is scarce. The minimarkets are looted everywhere." Indonesia’s Metro TV on Sunday broadcast footage from a coastal community in Donggala, close to the epicentre of the quake, where some waterfront homes appeared crushed but a resident said most people fled to higher ground after the quake struck. "When it shook really hard, we all ran up into the hills," a ...
