this is one of your unique interviews about bhutto with Aitzaz Ahsan.
That interview will be used through history.
Both of you were very excellent. And you give a lot of information to the young people of pakistan, who doesent know much about there politician history. Mr. Bhutto was the biggest politician after Muhammed Ali Jinnah until now. Maybe some others will come afterwards, not for sure but i hope that there will, and very soon!
But in some cases, in can take years. |
