Former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto has confirmed that she met President Pervez Musharrraf in Abu Dhabi, and revealed that she discussed the possibility of her serving as Prime Minister for a third term.
New York, Aug 15 : Former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto has confirmed that she met President Pervez Musharrraf in Abu Dhabi, and revealed that she discussed the possibility of her serving as Prime Minister for a third term.
Musharraf as a civilian president was also discussed, she added.
She said 'deal or not', she intended to return to Pakistan 'for saving my country from a militant takeover, (and) God forbid, disintegration'.
Bhutto warned that if an emergency was promulgated in the country, or the general elections were rigged, the Orange Revolution would be brought about like it was in Ukraine.
"We have not reached an agreement yet because everything the regime says it would do is post-presidential, prime ministerial and parliamentary elections," the Dawn quoted Bhutto, as saying.
Commenting on Nawaz Sharif's criticism of the deal, Bhutto said it was Sharif himself who went abroad via negotiations with Musharraf in 2002 and the General offered him a similar deal, provided he agreed to quit politics.
