Repaying $3b to Saudi Arabia: Bilawal Bhutto asks PM Imran to 'reveal reasons'

| @indiablooms | May 11, 2021, at 10:29 pm

Islamabad:  Pakistan People's Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto has asked Prime Minister Imran Khan to state the reasons behind repaying $3 billion to Saudi Arabia.

"Imran Khan has been traveling around the world with a begging bowl. Undoubtedly, you're experienced in asking for charity, but countries are not run on charity," Bilawal was quoted as saying by The Express Tribune in a statement released today.

He further said, "Imran Khan borrowed from China to repay a loan of $3 billion to Saudi Arabia. Premier should reveal to the nation why he repaid the money to the kingdom."

Bhutto also said every Pakistani was paying a horrific price for Imran Khan's tsunami of change.

"Flawed economic policies have made the lives of a common citizen miserable," he was quoted as saying by the newspaper, adding that, "if your borrowed money will continue to be wasted because of corruption, the public will continue to be suppressed by inflation."
