‘Feel ashamed begging for money’: Shehbaz Sharif, Asim Munir ‘quitely’ visited countries to save Pakistan’s economy

Pakistan’s prime minister Shehbaz Sharif revealed a difficult truth. He and Army Chief Asim Munir sought billions in loans from friendly nations. This was done quietly to bridge the country’s external financing gap. Sharif acknowledged the compromises involved in seeking such aid. China was a key supporter. Pakistan has a history of relying on the IMF for financial support.
