ISLAMABAD-
Chairman of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Imran Khan on Monday
urged that the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) be given another chance for peace talks.
Talking to reporters outside the Parliament House, Khan urged the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) to announce an unconditional ceasefire for saving the dialogue process.
He also said that a military operation should be conducted against Taliban militants who are involved in terrorism – but added that the militants who are ready to abandon terrorism should be involved in talks.
Khan – who had declined TTP’s request to join the intermediary committee for representing the group in peace negotiations- also said that had he been in Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s shoes, he would have led the talks himself.
