Asking the PML-N government to make difficult decisions, Shahid Khaqan Abbasi

A few days ago Abbasi urged the administration of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) to make difficult choices.

Speaking to the media in front of the Islamabad court building, Abbasi stated: “There was a government power that had collapsed prior to the current one. We are going to pray for the rulers’ wisdom.

“Iran is our neighboring country,” Abbasi remarked in reference to the Iranian president’s visit to Pakistan. The two countries’ relations desperately need to be strengthened.”

Following his approach to the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) to register his new political party, it was announced earlier this month that Abbasi had officially severed ties with the PML-N permanently.

After Abbasi personally arrived at the ECP headquarters in the Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT), he gave the ECP the data necessary to register his party.

In order to register, he claimed to have given the election regulator the necessary paperwork.
