Meeting Donald Trump will be a 'bitter pill' to swallow, says Imran Khan
2018-01-14
[DAWN] Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan said on Saturday that meeting US President Donald Trump would be a “bitter pill” to swallow should he become the prime minister in elections later this year, but added, “I would meet him.”

In a press briefing, Khan said he has been a staunch opponent of Pakistan's participation in the war on terror since it began in 2001 following the 9/11 attacks on the US.

“Pakistan had nothing to do with it,” he said, adding that he supported co-operation with the US but not co-opting Pakistan's military into a ground battle with its own people in the tribal regions that border Afghanistan.

#3  The difference being that President Trump can make it a gigantic brontosaurus pill, and the prime minister of Pakistan will have to smile, swallow hard until he gets it all down, and say thank you while President Trump watches.

How fortunate for the comfort and peaceof mind of Mr. Imran Khan, former famous sportsman, that he needn’t develop his swallowing muscles because he won’t win.
