Dr. Zahid Anwar Khan (IR Expert): Pakistan is facing a number of internal and external challenges at the moment. The address of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif to the nation to apprise them of government’s strategy is of vital importance. If we look at economy, we see there are a number of challenges. The political stability in the country also puts strain on stock exchange as well as other economic indicators. It is need of the hour that these challenges are resolved in consensus with all stakeholders. National interest is supreme and it requires joint efforts to control inflation and external challenges. Pakistani nation is resilient and is able to cope with the challenges.
