ISLAMABAD: Leader of the Opposition in the NA Shahbaz Sharif, talking to media during a break, said he was satisfied by the briefing given during the meeting, but refrained from sharing any details.
Shahbaz, responding to a question on whether Gen Bajwa answered questions asked during the meeting, said: “Yes, he did.”
Speaking to media at the Parliament House, former Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi said Shahbaz had spoken on behalf of the PML-N.
“We were not informed that US has demanded a base,” said the prime minister. “Nobody is going to give anyone any bases and neither has anybody asked for them,” he added.
Abbasi said decisions and policy making were not underway during the meeting, rather information was being provided, adding that politics was “not a circus” that one should expect new details every day.
The former prime minister said the military brass had put forward its opinion, and now the political leadership would make its decision.
