Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan humiliated himself on a US television show on which he was called 'a welder from the Bronx' by an anchor. Imran Khan, on a live television show, attempted to glorify China and put down the US as he complained about the 'poor' infrastructure in New York as compared to China which prompted the anchor to respond to him with 'You don't sound like the Prime Minister of Pakistan but you sound like a welder from the Bronx who complains about infrastructure'. The anchor hit out at Imran Khan for failing to curb terrorism in his own country and for failing to progress in the Afghan peace deal. Earlier, Imran Khan had made a volatile speech at the UNGA, raking up Islamic radicalization apart from making a sensational admission to have taken money from the Western countries to promote terrorism.

It looks like Imran Khan is getting no respite from the wrath of the Indians as Virender Sehwag became the second Indian cricketer after Gautam Gambhir to target the Pakistan PM. Virender Sehwag shared the video of the US anchor embarrassing Imran Khan and took to Twitter to share his thoughts. Labeling Imran Khan's speech in the UNGA as 'pathetic', Virender Sehwag said that Imran Khan was always finding ways to humiliate himself. The attack on the Pakistani PM comes after his address at the UN where he attempted to colour India's image in the global circle but failed to win over any support. See Virender Sehwag's tweet here:

Imran Khan's UNGA address

Addressing the 74th United Nations General Assembly at the UN Headquarters, New York, Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan, on Friday, predicted 'another Pulwama' when restrictions in Kashmir are completely lifted. He admitted to Pakistan's backing for Mujahideen and the country's flimsy economy. He blamed India for its current standing at the FATF. He also made an absurd Hollywood reference to defend terrorism, stating the possibility of a terror attack in Kashmir. Curiously, he repeatedly brought up his former cricket career and rambled on for 50 minutes at the UNGA.

PM Modi's UNGA address

Contrasting PM Imran Khan's 50-minute long speech, India's PM Modi wrapped up his entire speech within the allotted 15 minutes. PM Modi used the global stage to reaffirm India's commitment to fight against terror, climate change. He also showcased India as a global leader in terms of cleanliness, renewable energy, and development. PM Modi also spoke about India's rich heritage and culture, pride in the world celebrating 150th birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi and the message behind being elected with the world's biggest mandate.
