Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Co-Chairman Asif Ali Zardari on Tuesday said that Army Chief General Raheel Sharif’s retirement decision will turn people’s hopes into disappointment and can also affect the country’s war on terror negatively.

Terming the COAS’s decision as premature, Zardari said that the retirement decision at this critical juncture of Pakistan’s history may turn people’s hopes into despair, as internal and external elements are hatching conspiracies against the motherland.

The statement released further added that army’s struggle against terrorism and for stability of the country is unmatched and PPP stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the army and lauds all its soldiers for the sacrifices rendered.

“Nation is united against terrorism and people are hopeful that the war on terror will reach its logical conclusion under the leadership of Gen Raheel Sharif,” said the former president.

  1. When people talk, they lay lines on each other, do a lot of role playing, sidestep, shilly-shally and engage in all manner of vagueness and innuendo. We do this and expect others to do it, yet at the same time we profess to long for the plain truth, for people to say what they mean, simple as that. Such hypocrisy is a human universal.

  2. Mr 10% is speaking a different language if one has seen fuming him against the Army last year. Fearing a back-lash he ran away and was hiding in Dubai for many months before he left for USA. He may not have forgotton the letter Hussain Haqqani had written to Admiral Mullen on his instructions. Would not like to mentioned what he asked him to write in the letter. These poli-tics (blood-suckers) are like Chameleons – change colours and statements but not the heart.
