Main Pakistani parties explore pacts to challenge Imran Khan’s electoral dominance

Pakistan’s main political parties are in a process of negotiation and alliances with the aim of forming a government, which could mean a strategy to counter the unexpected electoral victory of independents backed by Imran Khan, the imprisoned and popular opposition leader.

Although no political force obtained a majority in the recent general elections on February 8, the figure of Imran Khan stands out as the winner, achieving that nearly a hundred of his allies were elected, despite the fact that they were forced to present themselves as candidates. independents due to judicial restrictions that prevented the participation of his party, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI).

However, uncertainty remains in Pakistan over who will govern in the next five years, as no political force has enough representatives in parliament. The pro-Khan bloc of lawmakers, made up of approximately 93 members, is legally registered as independent candidates, forcing them to seek alliances to form a majority.

Meanwhile, the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP), the third political force with 54 seats, is evaluating its options, considering possible alliances with both the PTI and Nawaz Sharif’s Muslim League (PML-N), which has 79 seats. seats.
Political negotiations intensify amid meetings and discussions between different parties, while Imran Khan, from prison, stays informed about his party’s strategy. However, PTI sources suggest that an alliance with the PPP is unlikely to be formed.

The political scenario in Pakistan looks even more complex due to the challenge cases filed by the PTI, which could generate additional tensions and affect the stability of the future government.

The virtual refusal of the PTI to negotiate an alliance with other parties also puts at risk the allocation of 70 reserved seats, which could significantly influence the configuration of parliament and the distribution of political power in the country.

The outcome of these negotiations and alliances will be crucial for Pakistan’s political future, as it will define not only who will lead the government in the coming years, but also the balance of power between the different political forces in the country.
