"Pakistan, a nuclear nation that is home to some 220 million people, is in a
political mess.
On April 3, 2022, Prime Minister – and former national sporting hero – Imran
Khan dissolved Parliament to get ahead of a no-confidence vote. That vote would
have seen parliamentarians decide whether or not to support Khan’s premiership
and would have likely seen him ousted from power.
What happens next is in the hands of the country’s Supreme Court and, after
that, the nation’s voters.
The Conversation asked Pakistani American scholar
Ayesha Jalal, professor of history at Tufts University, to help explain what is
going on – and what could happen next."
