‘PPP will pay a high cost for the deal’ - Aitzaz Ahsan
Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) member of the National Assembly Chaudhry Aitzaz Ahsan said that Benazir Bhutto was a “genius politician” who knew that a deal with President General Pervez Musharraf would be a high-cost-venture for her party as the deal would give birth to a severe public criticism. “President Musharraf does not seem to see the year-end and September will be turbulent for him,” Aitzaz told ARY channel in an interview telecast on Tuesday. He said, “Musharraf will try to hold the presidential election within a short schedule of 10 days.” Aitzaz said Bhutto had not discussed with him her Abu Dhabi meeting with Musharraf. He said Musharraf was suffering from “Nawaz-phobia” and that he had gone down to requesting Saudi Arabia to stop the Sharif brothers from returning. **Separately, at a function organised by the Pakistan Society of the London School of Economics, when asked why he had met Nawaz Sharif and not Bhutto while in London, he deflected the question by saying Bhutto was busy in talks with the government emissaries and would meet him in the PPP’s central committee meeting on August 31. ** :hehe:
