He said Umno respected PAS's commitment and commitment to the charter.According to Zahid, the agreement will not 'open the door' to any party that has a relationship with DAP
"There will be no negotiation any party in the Pakatan Harapan coalition as long as they share the power with DAP.""Umno rejects cooperation with DAP. Therefore, we have no negotiation with other parties as long as that party conspires with DAP, "he said
Ahmad Zahid claimed DAP was championing a Malaysian Malaysia agenda that Umno and BN could not accept
The Supreme Council meeting also decided that only Ahmad Zahid was eligible to negotiate for Umno with any other party in the PAS-Umno cooperation
"If there are parties outside Umno-PAS who want to invite Umno and PAS to hold discussions on the form of political co-operation, only the president can represent Umno, no other figure," he said. - Mkini
