Prime Minister Khan embarked on his three-day visit to the US this week to reset strained bilateral ties with Washington. He held wide-ranging talks with US President Donald Trump at the White House on Monday and also met Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
Khan arrived on a Qatar Airlines plane at the New International Islamabad airport early this morning and was greeted by his supporters raising slogans in his favour. “I felt as if I came home after winning the World Cup and not from an official visit,” Khan said as he briefly addressed the crowd.
His return coincided with his election victory on July 25 election last year. “We have to transform all institutions which had been destroyed by thieves who only want to loot Pakistan,” he said.
Khan arrived in Doha, Qatar for a brief stopover on his way back to Islamabad after completing his US trip. He also met his Qatari counterpart Sheikh Abdullah bin Nasser bin Khalifa Al Thani at Doha.
