President Zardari said on this occasion, “We are allies of China first, then of anyone else,”
On the response of one question to a query if it was true that he was invited to attend an event of the new US administration, he said, “As far as my US visit is concerned, this is completely true. I will definitely go for breakfast, a practice that’s continued from my mother’s tenure. There’s a possibility of holding meetings with friends of Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto there [as well].
Neither I’m a minister nor a government official so this [trip of mine] is not official or as a representative of the government,”
It is worth mentioning here that PPP Co-chairman Zardari had attended the pre-inauguration oath ceremony of then-US President-elect Trump in Washington, DC in 2017.
