Former Pakistani finance minister, Ishaq Dar, has suggested that talks
between political parties could be a possibility if Prime Minister Imran
Khan apologized to the nation for the violent events that occurred on May
9. The carnage refers to the clashes that took place during a by-election
in the city of Lahore, resulting in the deaths of several individuals.
Dar’s statement indicates that an apology from Imran Khan would be seen as
a step towards reconciliation and a potential avenue for resolving the
political tensions that have plagued the country. It remains to be seen
whether such talks will materialize and if an apology from the prime
minister will be forthcoming.
