Did PM Imran count how much has been spent by our Foreign Minister flying every week, if not earlier, from one end to another attending summits / conferences or just meetings foreign dignitaries but for what? How much did Pakistan gain from such huge expenditure? How much Pakistan had lost if FM had not flown out alike? Had sky split apart if FM had not spent so much or will sky split apart if he does not fly out from today? GCC FMs do not fly so often. Who enlightens me? exdiplomat@hotmail.com
