LONDON: President Asif Ali Zardari Sunday dismissed the world�s perception that he left the country in a difficult of trial.
In an interview with a British daily, the President said: �I travel so much and meet world leaders so much because whatever I need to do on the ground can be done more efficiently when I am helped. If I hadn�t travelled, I wouldn�t be going back with nearly $1 billion (�660m) of aid. I am grateful but I need more, much more.� He said terrorism is not just Pakistan�s problem but it is �world�s problem�. �It�s no good everyone being in denial. If we don�t defeat the militants, where will they go next?� he questioned. �If they hadn�t taken her (Ms Benazir Bhutto) away so rudely from me, I wouldn�t have come back to fight as I have, and I don�t think her son would have taken up this responsibility.� To a question regarding his children, President Zardari said: �I think they�re brave children, they have brave genes. She�s made them grow up realising life is not just about yourself but to live for a larger cause.� To another question about Swat peace deal he said: �I didn�t hand over anything, you won�t catch me handing anything over. The provincial government had already signed the agreement and I just passed it to parliament, and they signed it.� He said it was a good thing, because it exposed Sufi Muhammad for what he was. |

yeah, perhaps he should use some of the money he made when they were calling him "Mr 10%"
