Bilawal Bhutto's visit to US: ''Imran Khan's visit to Russia, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari defends ''
''The way Bilawal defended Imran Khan's visit to Russia, even his own spokespersons might not have been able to''.
I support the former Prime Minister's visit to Russia. He did not know that Moscow would invade Ukraine as soon as Russia arrived.
It would be very unfair to punish Pakistan for such an innocent act. Secretary of State's News Briefing in the United States
Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has defended Imran Khan's visit to Russia, saying that he supports the former prime minister's visit to Russia. He did not know that Moscow would invade Ukraine as soon as Russia arrived Punishing a sinful act would be a very unjust act.
''According to details, during a media briefing at the UN headquarters, he said that former Prime Minister Imran Khan had visited Russia under foreign policy,I defend his visit to Russia and It is not right to blame Pakistan for the visit to Russia''.
It is not right to blame, we do not want to side with any aggressor and do not want to be a part of any conflict, we are tired of watching the war, we are worried about the ongoing crisis in Afghanistan and Pakistan also supports the Palestinians.
He said, ''The conflict is causing a humanitarian crisis and food shortages.We look to the United Nations for leadership in this regard.The people of Ukraine are starving because of the ongoing conflict there.''
95% of the population of Afghanistan is directly at risk due to the conflict, the people of Occupied Palestine and Occupied Kashmir are constantly imprisoned due to the ongoing conflict and including hunger are subjected to brutal treatment.
The main objectives of the United Nations were to resolve conflicts, end war, establish peace, fight against hunger, poverty and backwardness.The world order, formed 76 years ago under the principles of the United Nations Charter, is being shaken, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said.
Pakistan's Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari is currently on an important visit to the United States, where efforts are being made to reduce tensions between the two countries.
In such a situation, while echoing the speech of his grandfather Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto at the United Nations, Bilawal Bhutto was also asked questions about his mother Benazir Bhutto.
However, the answer to a question about former Prime Minister Imran Khan's visit to Russia has become the most prominent aspect of his visit.
When Bilawal was asked during a press briefing in New York that Imran Khan's visit to Russia has caused a great deal of frustration in Europe and the United States, how would you deal with it?
Bilawal said, ''I will defend the former prime minister's visit to Russia.'' He made the visit in line with his foreign policy. No one's sixth sense is so good, in any case we could not have known that this would be the time when the current (Russia-Ukraine) conflict was about to begin.
''I think it would be unfair to punish Pakistan for this innocent act.''
I would absolutely defend the former PM of Pakistan. Former PM conducted that trip as part of his foreign policy without knowing that the current conflict would start.@BBhuttoZardari#PakFMAtUN
Later, in response to a question, Bilawal Bhutto had said, "When I serve as the Foreign Minister of Pakistan, I am not only representing the PPP supporters but also the people of Pakistan as a whole."

It may be recalled that former Prime Minister Imran Khan had visited Russia in late February this year, which was considered very important from a diplomatic point of view. However, he met with Russian President Vladimir Putin on the eve of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
The visit has been repeatedly mentioned by Imran Khan since the success of the no-confidence motion and the removal of Imran Khan from the post of Prime Minister. He was allegedly "punished" by the United States for trying to establish relations with Russia.
Bilawal is gaining traction on social media for defending Imran Khan's statement and many people are also quoting statements made by former Prime Minister Imran Khan during his foreign tours.
