Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari defended Imran Khan’s travel to Russia on Thursday, saying it is unjust to penalise Pakistan for this “innocent move.”

Following the conclusion of a two-day visit, the foreign minister spoke during a press conference at the UN Headquarters. Secretary of State Antony Blinken invited Bilawal to a meeting on world food security.

The top Pakistani ambassador was questioned about the former prime minister’s visit on February 24, the day Russia began its offensive in Ukraine, and how the current government planned to “correct the mistakes” of its predecessors.
