Pakistan’s former Prime Minister Imran Khan’s party started new protests nationwide until what it called “democracy is restored” in the country, eight months after similar demonstrations turned deadly bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
As pro-democracy protests explode across Pakistan, the US must use its leverage over brutal, corrupt US-backed dictator Asim Munir to block the regime from engaging in repression of the people of Pakistan The US must end ALL support for the deeply unpopular military regime!
