Member of the government’s negotiation committee, Rana Sanaullah, expressed confidence in the ongoing dialogue process, stating that successful negotiations require open-minded participation from all parties.
He emphasized that the discussions so far have been positive, but practical implementation of agreed points is essential.
“There are no guarantees in negotiations, but I am 100% confident in their success,” said Rana Sanaullah, highlighting the importance of sincerity and mutual understanding in the dialogue.
During his remarks, Rana Sanaullah stated that no preconditions were set during the talks.
He added that the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) would present its stance, after which the government would respond to find a middle ground. “Political dialogue involves sitting down, listening to each other, and finding compromises—it is not about accepting every demand outright,” he explained.
Rana Sanaullah acknowledged the history of tensions between the parties but emphasized the need for reconciliation. “The issues being discussed are not new. Both sides have called each other names in the past
However, if the parliamentary democratic system is to move forward, it cannot happen without political dialogue,” he stated.
Referencing past agreements like the Charter of Democracy with the Pakistan Peoples Party, he stressed the need for a similar initiative focused on the economy. “We talked about a Charter of Economy before and are reiterating it today. Just as the Charter of Democracy helped in the past, a Charter of Economy is the need of the hour,” he said.
