Pakistan's generals fail to fix an election

Time

March 25, 2024

PAKISTAN'S WORSTkept secret is that its military dominates its government. Whether to safeguard the nation against chaos or to protect their own privileged access to power and wealth, its generals have manipulated the country's politics for decades. Pakistan's voters, like voters elsewhere, want change. 

Pakistan's generals fail to fix an election

February's ugly election fiasco shows that it's only getting harder for the army to prevent political disrupters from upending their plans but, unfortunately for Pakistan's future, they have yet again managed to override public demand for a new direction.

A brief recap: The generals and popular leader Imran Khan decided some time ago they could no longer trust one another. The army then removed Khan from his post as Prime Minister and put him in jail, as it has done to many past Prime Ministers who refused to respect their dominance. He now faces more than 150 criminal charges, all of which he denies.
