Imran Khan

Former Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan blamed the opposition's attempts to oust him as being part of a "foreign conspiracy."

A Pakistan official told Newsweek that the no-confidence vote to remove Prime Minister Imran Khan was "a parliamentary process as per the constitution."

Pakistan's Prime Minister Imran Khan prompted fury after he avoided an attempt to oust him from office and sought fresh elections.

The prime minister told Newsweek that to combat terrorism and bolster regional stability, Washington must stay engaged in Afghanistan.

"We don't have discotheques, we don't have night clubs, so it's a different way of life here. If you raise temptation in the society to a point and all these young guys have nowhere to go, it has consequences in the society," Khan said.

"I am PM of Pakistan and #WeStandWithGaza #WeStandWithPalestine," Khan wrote in a tweet.

The year 2020 posed a significant challenge to the dream of a Digital Pakistan, and that is not entirely because of the global pandemic.

Indian prime minister Narendra Modi was among the first to respond to the president testing positive for the virus.

Khan lamented the huge human and economic cost of the War on Terror, noting that Pakistan "took a real battering."

"Afghanistan would be wiped off the face of the earth, it would be gone," Trump said on Monday.

The president said peace was "probably going to be happening" despite reports of continuing exchanges of weapons fire along the disputed Kashmir border.

Only last month, President Donald Trump said Pakistan had done nothing to help the U.S. in the 17-year war in Afghanistan.

Islamabad's anger at Trump's comments is growing.

"US 'aid' was a miniscule $20 bn," Prime Minister Imran Khan wrote on Twitter.

"With the U.S., we want to have a mutually beneficial relationship ... up until now, that has been one way."

The former cricketer's party won the most seats in July's elections, propping up Khan to become Pakistan's new leader more than two decades after pivoting from the sporting world to politics. 

The 65-year-old hopes to become prime minister as Pakistanis head to the polls.

He reportedly sought out the conservative Muslim spiritual guide for advice.

Offshore companies, million-dollar London properties and a rogue Microsoft font contributed to Sharif's demise.
