Bhutto: No power-sharing with army
Bhutto said the prime minister and the army chief should be two different persons [Reuters] Benazir Bhutto, Pakistan’s former prime minister, has said she will not agree a power-sharing deal with Pervez Musharraf, the man currently in that job, as long as he also remained the head of the army. Bhutto told Al Jazeera she wanted to return from self-imposed exile to contest Pakistan’s next general election, due no later than early 2008. But she will not do that before Musharraf quits his military post, gives up the powers to dismiss the prime minister and dissolve the parliament, and assures free and fair elections.
