Sher Afzal Khan Marwat, known for his outspoken nature and close ties with former Prime Minister Imran Khan, made the remarks during a candid media interaction. His tongue-in-cheek comments—delivered with a straight face—instantly sparked a flurry of memes and jokes online. Many viewers dubbed the interaction a “rare moment of truth” in Pakistani politics, while others saw it as an embarrassment on an international stage.

The video, which has now gone viral on social media platforms across both India and Pakistan, has drawn mixed reactions. While many netizens found Marwat's sarcasm hilarious, others criticised the casual attitude displayed by a public representative during such sensitive geopolitical discussions. The clip reflects a growing sense of frustration and helplessness among some sections of Pakistan's leadership as tensions with India rise.
This viral clip emerges at a time when Indo-Pak relations are at a low point, especially after repeated ceasefire violations and provocative statements from Pakistani ministers. In contrast to the usual aggressive posturing, Marwat’s ironic admission of fleeing to London has been interpreted by some analysts as a reflection of the elite's escape route mentality—leaving the masses to deal with the consequences.
Political commentators in India noted how such statements weaken Pakistan’s diplomatic standing. Meanwhile, Indian netizens flooded the comment section with jokes, one user writing, “At least someone is honest in Pakistani politics!” Others mocked the statement as evidence of Pakistan's lack of preparation and seriousness on the international front.
