PM sticks to his U-turn remarks

Published November 19, 2018

ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan, while standing by his earlier remarks, reiterated on Sunday that taking a U-turn to reach one’s objective was the hallmark of great leadership.

“Doing a U-turn to reach one’s objective is the hallmark of great leadership just as lying to save ill-gotten wealth is the hallmark of crooks,” PM Khan said in a tweet.

The prime minister’s tweet came during his day-long official visit to the United Arab Emirates, during which Pakistan and the UAE agreed to forge strategic economic relations.
