Imran wants UK to cut aid to Pakistan

reached the target.

After the latest review of international aid,Britain plans to increase its annual aid to Pakistan from 140 million pounds to 350 million pounds over the next few years.

This aid is to be tied to progress on reforms.

Khan,who identified corruption as one of the major issues in his country in a recent interview,said,”If we don’t have aid we will be forced to make reforms and stand on our own feet.”

Aid money,he said,propped up corrupt governments,and added,”Unfortunately,aid has been a curse for Pakistan.

Total aid is about 20 billion dollars. This 20 billion dollars is not helping the people of Pakistan”.

Khan earlier told the BBC that Pakistan should also not accept aid from the US.
