The External Affairs Minister was recently in the news for his controversial comments at the United Nations.

Pakistan's Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto while talking to reporters in the US on Thursday compared himself to a donkey while defending his frequent foreign trips.

In a video posted by the ruling Pakistan People's Party (PPP), Bilawal Bhutto says he pays for his foreign trips and works "hard" and that his office "made him work like a donkey".

Bhutto was responding to questions about criticism of her foreign visits and the cost to the nation, which is grappling with economic crisis.

Bhutto told reporters in Washington, "I should be the only foreign minister who buys his own tickets, pays his own hotel bills and doesn't burden Pakistan and its people."

"Democracy in Pakistan is successful that not any journal or judge but the Parliament of Pakistan has democratically removed a prime minister."
