ISLAMABAD: Pakistan People's Party Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has formed a foreign relations committee to frame national responses to present and foreign challenges.

Commenting on this development, Senator Sherry Rehman said, "The PPP has always had the most robust and clear foreign policy for Pakistan. From Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto to Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto and President Zardari's government to today... the PPP has clear views on policy; we have articulated the best interests of Pakistan, both at home and abroad." "From the nuclear deterrent to missile capability, and making the China opportunity real via giving Gwadar Port handling to the Peoples Republic Of China by [then] president Zardari, the party has taken seminal initiatives for safeguarding the borders, integrity and sovereignty of Pakistan," she said.
"We are the only party that envisions peace for Pakistan both at home and abroad in real, meaningful terms. The FRC is an important committee of the party and I look forward to working with the leadership and my colleagues on framing national responses to present and upcoming challenges," said Sherry Rehman.
