'Captain' Imran Khan in his address to the nation broadcast live from Bani Gala, has unveiled the broad points of his foreign policy agenda in which he has underlined his vision to improve relations with China, Afghanistan, the US, Iran, Saudi Arabia and India.

"We will strengthen our relations with China, they have given us a chance by investing in the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor," he said expressing his gratitude to the country's steady all-weather friend.

Regarding Afghanistan, he remarked that the country "has suffered the most in the ‘war on terror’, and before that in the Afghan jihad. Peace in Afghanistan means peace in Pakistan," he said, adding that he envisions open borders with Afghanistan reminiscent of those within the European Union.

He said he wished relations with the US to be mutually beneficial, not one-sided. Additionally, he said he and his party wanted stronger ties with Iran.

"Saudi Arabia has stood by us in our toughest times. We would like to be a reconciliatory state and help them resolve their inner tensions," he said.

He added that he was very disappointed with how Indian media had, in the days leading up to the election, portrayed him as a "Bollywood villain".

"We want to improve our relations with India, if their leadership also wants it. This blame game that whatever goes wrong in Pakistan is because of India and vice versa brings us back to square one," he said.
