Rafiq said that he should sit with us for unconditional talks. They (PTI) need talks, not us, he said. They start the talk of the conversation and then shy away from even talking about it. He further said that dialogue is part of the political process and complex problems can be resolved when both sides listen to each other.
The minister also said that the dissolution of assemblies is not a matter of pride for the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N)-led government. He said that we want the assemblies to complete their constitutional term.
