Says we feel he is a puppet, but he is a self-respecting man
Islamabad (Pakistan Point News – 9th December, 2018) The former chief of the Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) AS Dulat has said that Pakistan’s Prime Minister Imran Khan is India’s best bet after former president General (r) Pervez Musharraf.
“Imran may be a puppet at the hands of the ISI or army, but we need to give him time and a chance to prove his intentions,” AS Dulat said while speaking at a session on the wisdom of spies during the Military Literature Festival at Chandigarh.
“We feel he is a puppet, but he is a self-respecting man. Don't push him into a corner. He can change things in the sub-continent. Musharraf was the villain of Kargil, but there has not been a more reasonable leader in Pakistan in 30 years,” the former RAW chief said.
“It is said that once he disappeared a lot less was done for ties between India and Pakistan,” Dulat added.
He asserted that talks are the only way forward for both nations.
I would even suggest an institutional arrangement between the intelligence agencies of both countries, he added.
