DUBAI, Aug 2: Former prime minister Benazir Bhutto said she will return from exile this year to take part in a general election due next year, according to an interview published on Thursday.
“Yes, the PPP and I will be part of an election in Pakistan this year,” Ms Bhutto told the Emirates Today newspaper.
Ms Bhutto said talks between her party and the government were aimed at restoring stability in Pakistan, but it was too soon to be certain of their outcome.
“The contacts between the PPP and the Musharraf regime are aimed at restoring democracy and the rule of law,” she said.—AFP
