ISLAMABAD: Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari warned the opposition Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) that it has one more opportunity to “clarify whether it wants to become a political party or not.”

During a joint session of parliament on Monday, he said that if the PTI is a political party, it should first condemn and apologize for the arson attacks and violence that occurred during huge rallies following the arrest of party chairman Imran Khan.

No talks unless PTI apologizes

He said that if it does not apologize, we will not talk with a “militant party,” whether on the chief justice’s or anyone else’s orders.

The Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) chairman’s remarks come only days after PTI supporters, furious by their leader’s arrest in the Al-Qadir Trust case, stormed military installations and damaged both public and private properties in violence that lasted for days.
