Bilawal to take oath as FM soon: Kaira

Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) leader and Adviser to the Prime Minister on Kashmir Affairs and Gilgit-Baltistan Qamar Zaman Kaira on Saturday confirmed that the party’s chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari will take oath as foreign minister in a day or two.

Talking to the media in London along with PML-N leader Ishaq Dar, Kaira said that all the matters have been sorted out and the PPP chairman has left for Pakistan after meeting with former prime minister Nawaz Sharif.

“Bilawal Bhutto Zardari will take oath as FM in a day or two”, Kaira said.

In their last meeting, the PML-N supremo and PPP chairman — the two key allies in the ruling coalition — discussed ways forward after a “constitutional victory for democracy, the rule of law and supremacy of parliament” and agree to work closely to “repair the rot across the board,” read a joint statement.

Former premier Nawaz Sharif led the PML-N delegation during the talks, while the PPP side comprised Bilawal, Senator Sherry Rehman, Naveed Qamar and Kaira.
