PTI leader Asad Umar has claimed that party chairman Imran Khan “ignored all warnings” ahead of his Russia visit and proceeded with the tour with an aim to arrange “cheap oil” for people of the country.

“Imran was advised that the powerful will turn against him if he visited Russia, but the PTI chief paid no heed to such warnings in the better interest of the country,” Asad Umar told a gathering in Jhelum.
