The Pakistan Peoples' Party has decided to engage with the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz and other political parties regarding government formation to end political instability and toxicity in the country. This decision was announced by PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari while addressing a news conference in Islamabad this evening. He said that a committee of his party has been constituted for this purpose. The Chairman said that the PPP will not become a part of the federal cabinet but will extend its support to the upcoming government on an issue-to-issue basis, particularly on important votes such as budget, legislation, and the election of the Prime Minister. Bilawal Bhutto Zardari noted that as his party lacks the required mandate for government formation, he will not put himself forward as a candidate for the position of Prime Minister. He mentioned that the PML-N had reached out to the PPP regarding the formation of the government. Additionally, he highlighted that the PTI had announced it would not engage with any political parties regarding government formation. In response to a question, he stated that it is the prerogative of the PML-N or others to nominate any person for the office of Prime Minister. Addressing another question, the PPP Chairman expressed that his party will attempt to form governments in Sindh and Balochistan, as well as compete for constitutional offices such as the Presidency, Chairman Senate, and Speaker of the National Assembly. He expressed his preference for former President Asif Ali Zardari to reassume the office of the president. When asked further, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari affirmed that his party accepts the election results despite having reservations. He urged all political parties, including the PTI, to prioritize Pakistan's interests and abandon the politics of extremism and personal enmity, emphasizing the need for both political and economic stability in the country.
