Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan on Wednesday said he would cooperate with the incoming prime minister, Nawaz Sharif, against the menace of terrorism as well as other major challenges facing the country.
Khan made the remarks from his hospital bed, where he is being treated for head and back injuries after falling from a lifter at a campaign rally.
“We have decided that despite severe differences that we have, we will work together to solve major national problems, including terrorism,” Khan said in a video message aired during a PTI press conference.
“Elections are over and we all as a nation want to move forward,” Khan said, adding that he wanted all politicians and the military to sit down together and find a solution to domestic terrorism, which has killed thousands of people in the country.
“We cannot ensure prosperity until we eliminate the issue of terrorism,” he said.
Khan also vowed to put together a provincial coalition government in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and turn it into a “role model” for the rest of the country.
