00:00I would like to start with Mr. Mohammad Malik and the rest of the guests.
00:07Obviously, none of us are stars and we are not making any claims.
00:12But there is a probability that 100% is right and 100% is wrong.
00:19But when you sit down and look at January 1st, what do you think is the probability?
00:23Tell us the percentage.
00:26First of all, I would like to ask you.
00:29In your opinion, how much is the probability of this government staying in power in this one year?
00:36Of course, I understand that in a country like Pakistan, it is sometimes very difficult to predict the next 365 days.
00:41Events happen so fast.
00:43But as I said, this is not a claim.
00:45This is just an estimate.
00:46It can be right or wrong.
00:47How much is the probability of this government staying in power in this year, in 2025?
00:57I can see that they will stay in power in 2025.
01:01Because there are two or three things.
01:03There are two angles.
01:04One is the economic situation of Pakistan and the other is the political situation.
01:08If you come to politics, the countdown has started on January 20th.
01:13And the work that Richard Grenell has shown in the last few days of 2024,
01:20has aroused a lot of expectations.
01:24But at the same time, this is a double-edged sword.
01:28A lot of people think that Trump administration will be involved.
01:34It is said about Richard Grenell that he has a lot of personal relations with Trump's younger son.
01:42Then the senior people of PTI sitting in America and very effective people.
01:49I spoke to one or two of them who matter.
01:53They are very confident that there are a lot of promises in domestic politics.
01:58Of Republican candidates, of Congress, of other people who have been supported by the Pakistani diaspora.
02:04And they are saying to leave the international.
02:07The quid pro quo of elections in domestic politics,
02:11you will see that there will be involvement.
02:14That is a very significant thing.
02:17But the issue is that this is a double-edged sword.
02:21Everyone thinks that if there is American involvement,
02:25then the government will have to back off and Mr. Khan will get a lot of relief.
02:30But if they survive this, if there is any involvement,
02:35then what will happen?
02:41PTI cannot create street pressure at the moment.
02:45In the state it is in, the bad situation in Punjab,
02:48the hardships, the military trials.
02:51And you will remember the last pressure in December 2024,
02:57of DGI SPR.
02:59After that, there should be no doubt that Imran Khan's plan is complete
03:04that he is ready to conduct military trials.
03:07We are hearing about Faiz Ameed,
03:09that his decision will also be made.
03:11That will also be a military trial.
03:13You said that if the American factory is down, then what?
03:17Then it is very tough.
03:19At the moment, it seems that the American factory is the most important element.
03:22How much is the possibility of this downfall in your opinion?
03:26At the moment, it is 50-50.
03:29Secondly, there is a big difference in the nature of the involvement.
03:32You see that,
03:34Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif has made 6 visits to Saudi Arabia in less than a month.
03:41And when you talk to the relevant people of the government,
03:45the insiders,
03:46they say that,
03:47I have asked them,
03:48I said that 5-6 visits have been made, up and down.
03:51There is no economic issue.
03:53Development does not happen so quickly.
03:55So, they are seeing a buffer in that.
03:59If Trump administration is involved,
04:01then MBS will be our saviour.
04:04Because MBS is very important for Trump's Middle East policy.
04:10And also for his personal business interest.
04:13If a person says,
04:15Brother, you will save us.
04:17So, they are building their buffer zone like that.
04:20And again, the difference has to be seen,
04:22that what level of involvement does the Trump administration have?
04:26How forceful is the administration?
04:28So, you are saying that due to American pressure,
04:31there is a 50-50 chance of a breakthrough.
04:34And you think that there is a chance for the government to survive this year.
04:39You have no reason to believe that the government will fall this year.
04:43Yes, because if there is an agreement with PTI,
04:48then it will not be a matter of a few weeks.
04:51Let's say,
04:52negotiations will start again on 2nd.
04:55If that is meaningful,
04:56even if something happens under any compulsion,
04:58then at least 25 years.
05:00Correct.
05:01More than political,
05:02for them, economic issues are more tough.
05:04I will ask you a separate question about the economy.
05:06Absolutely right.
05:08Sohail sir, exactly the same question is from you.
05:10What percentage do you think there is a chance for the government to survive this year in 2025?
05:1680%.
05:1780%, alright.
05:19And the remaining 20% is due to the American element.
05:25The reason for that is,
05:27at the moment, the government has a legitimacy issue
05:31and the other is unacceptable.
05:34These are the two issues.
05:37And the solution to these two issues is the national government.
05:41But with a weak PTI, the national government.
05:45So, there is a possibility that at the end of this year,
05:51if there is a chance for it, then it will start.
05:55Okay.
05:56And,
05:57because when we are talking right now,
05:59Sohail sir,
06:00the situation is that,
06:01like Mr. Malik said,
06:03things have been managed here on other issues.
06:05If something unexpected happens from America,
06:08then things can change completely.
06:09Do you think this is overhyped?
06:13On the basis of some tweets,
06:15don't you think so?
06:18Look,
06:19both options are there.
06:21With the administration,
06:23with our establishment.
06:25One is that they will try to cool the fire.
06:30Like Mr. Malik said,
06:32through Muhammad bin Salman.
06:35Obviously, there are old ties in their Pentagon.
06:38They will also bring them into use.
06:40The effort is being made that the non-loyalty,
06:43a loyal minister should participate in it.
06:46Okay.
06:47Nowadays,
06:48the ambassadors of Pakistan in America,
06:51have come to Pakistan.
06:52Right.
06:53And,
06:54peace talks are ongoing abroad.
06:56So,
06:57obviously,
06:58they are making their own strategy that,
07:00if there is a slight intervention,
07:03then they will avoid it and manage it.
07:06Right.
07:07If there is a major,
07:08then they will talk to China,
07:10they will also talk to Saudi Arabia.
07:12And,
07:13they also have a third option.
07:14What is that?
07:15The third option is that,
07:17which Bilawal has expressed,
07:19that America,
07:21politics is just an excuse.
07:23Imran Khan is just an excuse.
07:25The real target,
07:27is the missile program.
07:29The target is the missile program.
07:31So,
07:32this narrative,
07:33will be sold.
07:34And,
07:35will be sold.
07:36And,
07:37the strongest thing of Imran,
07:39which is his acceptance,
07:41will be attacked.
07:42Hmm.
07:43Okay.
