President General Pervez Musharraf wants the Pakistan People's Party (PPP) to join him, but without Benazir Bhutto, Daily Times Editor Najam Sethi told Geo news channel on Wednesday. Talking by telephone about Musharraf's statement that Benazir Bhutto, Nawaz Sharif and Shahbaz Sharif had no future role in Pakistani politics, Sethi said Musharraf could talk with Amin Fahim and other PPP leaders but not to Benazir, as it was his personal policy to avoid talking to Benazir and Nawaz Sharif.Bhutto had agreed not to be a prime ministerial candidate after the next general elections, said Sethi, adding that Musharraf would not allow Nawaz to be the prime minister. He said that a constitutional amendment was required for both Benazir and Nawaz to become prime minister, which was "currently impossible." The newspaper editor said Musharraf could allow Benazir to play a "behind the scenes" role in Pakistani politics but not an overt one. He said an immediate issue facing Benazir was to get permission for her party to participate fully and independently in the next general elections and the dismissal of cases against her.
