Pakistan PM Imran Khan praises India's foreign policy, says it ‘stands for its people’

Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan praised India’s foreign policy for being independent and said it is for the betterment of its people.

Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan heaped praise on the Indian government and said India’s foreign policy is independent and for the betterment of its people.

In a video, Pakistan PM Imran Khan could be heard saying, "Main aaj Hindustan ko daad deta hun (Today, I salute India). It has always maintained an independent foreign policy."

“India is a member of Quad alliance, with the United States as one of its members. But India still calls itself neutral. India is importing oil from Russia, which is facing sanctions. This is because India's foreign policy is for its people,” Imran Khan said.

Imran Khan’s remark comes even as he faces the threat of being unseated from power as several lawmakers from the ruling party withdrew their support for the Pakistan PM ahead of a no-confidence vote.
