Can you please clarify what you are suggesting here?

Pakistan has its own internal mechanisms led by its Generals that will take care of its issues, no outside agency -CIA or any other - involvement is needed.

What the international media had to say about the elections that were everything but predictable​

“You might be wondering why it has taken us a couple of days to talk about Pakistan politics and Pakistani elections, one of our favourite subjects; that’s because one, the situation has been fast-moving and second, the situation has been much too cluttered also for me to hold forth on it…”

This is how The Print’s editor-in-chief Shekhar Gupta started his Cut The Clutter episode 48 hours after the general elections. And cluttered undoubtedly it has been.

Following the turbulent year Pakistan’s politics has faced, the international media’s coverage of the country’s elections — undisputedly controversial even before the date was announced — has been hard-hitting, to say the least.

From the pre-poll phase to election day irregularities to the post-poll counting process — the attempts to subvert the PTI that were blatantly executed have not gone unnoticed; neither has the fact that PTI-backed candidates clinched majority National Assembly seats in spite of them.

Here, Dawn.com looks at some of the reporting and analysis from across the globe on the elections that were, contrary to the pre-poll predictions, anything but predictable.

Former PPP senator Farhatullah Babar has questioned the Election Commission of Pakistan’s (ECP) delay in uploading Form 45 and Form 47 of every constituency on its official website.
In a post on X, he stated that the electoral watchdog could have uploaded the data to “refute allegations of complicity”.
