- Bishkek (Kyrgyzstan) | Pakistan Prime Minister once again breaks protocol opening ceremony of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Summit held in Kyrgyzstan’s capital Bishkek.
In a video doing rounds on social media, various leaders can be seen entering the venue and standing beside their designated chairs.
Imran Khan is seen seating while everyone else stood to welcome the head of states entering the hall. Upon realizing that he was perhaps the only one seated, he stood briefly and then seated himself again before the others did.

This is not the first time Pak PM has been seen breaking protocol.
During a meeting with the Saudi king, he was seen inadvertently exiting from the conversation and leaving just after he conveyed his message to the translator and did not to wait until the message reached His Majesty.
