ISLAMABAD - Federal Minister for Defence Kh Muhammad Asif said Sunday that for any meaningful dialogue to take place, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) must seek an unconditional apology for orchestrating the events of May 9. Talking to a private news channel, he pointing towards Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf stated that it was impossible to negotiate with a party engaged in activities that undermine the political process.

He acknowledged that Maulana Fazal Ur Rehman, being a seasoned politician, can play a pivotal role in the legislative process.
