.@ImranKhanPTI: All policies of my government have been fully backed by the army. #CFRLive

.@ImranKhanPTI: The United Nations, the Security Council had given the people of Kashmir the right of self-determination, which was never given to them. Now, how do we start talking to anyone? #CFRLive

.@ImranKhanPTI:
At least what I expect the international community to do is to ask them to lift the curfew. It's inhuman. It's a violation of every humanitarian right of the people of Kashmir. #CFRLive

.@ImranKhanPTI: We have laws protecting women . . . but when these violations take place, it's because our enforcement, our implementation is weak. #CFRLive

.@ImranKhanPTI: There is only Islam. There's no such things as moderate Islamic or radical Islamic. There is only one Islam. #CFRLive

.@ImranKhanPTI: Since I've taken over, we have faced the biggest economic crisis. We have problems in Afghanistan. We are worried about what will happen now with Iran and Saudi Arabia. . . #CFRLive

.@ImranKhanPTI: . . .so one border Iran, the other Afghanistan, and now India. I think I have enough on my plate right now. #CFRLive

.@ImranKhanPTI: What I admire about China the most: in 30 years they have taken 700 million people out of poverty. What is the one thing I want in Pakistan? Lift 100 million Pakistanis out of poverty. So that's one thing we've learned from China. #CFRLive

.@ImranKhanPTI: There've been no demands by China which restrict our sovereignty. #CFRLive

.@ImranKhanPTI: I am more worried about India right now than even Pakistan. Because India is not heading in the right direction. #CFRLive
