RAWALPINDI: Former interior minister and Awami Muslim League chief Sheikh Rasheed Ahmad on Sunday warned Pakistan is close to default.
In his Tweet, Sheikh Rasheed said Finance Minister Ishaq Dar has failed in getting any relief from international donors during his recent US visit.
Sheikh Rashid underscored that the country is close to defaulting.
“The country’s assets are more precious to us than our lives,” he added.
ملک ڈیفالٹ ہونے کے قریب تر ہے،ڈار کو امداد تو کیا ملاقات کا وقت بھی نہی ملا،قومی سلامتی کا مسئلہ پیدا ہوگیا ہے،ہمارے اثاثے ہماری جان سے زیادہ عزیز ہیں،بھان متی کا کنبہ معیشت کو لے ڈوبا ہے،کھرب پتی حکمرانوں نےاپنی جیب سے١٠روپے بھی سیلاب زدگان کو نہی دیے،سیاست کے١٠روزبہت ہی اہم ہیں

Sheikh Rasheed held the coalition government responsible for pushing the country into deep economic crises.
Earlier, he criticized former president Asif Zardari and former PM Nawaz Sharif saying that Zardari is a threat to the constitution and unity of the country. He said they are working on a foreign agenda and named Nawaz Sharif as an equal participant in this conspiracy.
