Minister for Climate Change Zartaj Gul Wazir said that leaders are those that create opportunities during a crisis.

"The entire world has acknowledged Prime Minister Imran Khan's initiative for debt relief for developing nations struggling to combat the coronavirus."

He also initiated the green stimulus programme under which we employed out-of-work labourers to plant 22,000 saplings, she said.

Citing a recent survey by Gallup, she said that majority of the people have agreed with the premier's decisions to tackle the Covid-19 outbreak.
