ISLAMABAD: Former prime minister Nawaz Sharif said that it is not right to say that we have resisted or had differences with all army chiefs. 

He added that he and his government has also had cordial relations with certain army chiefs. 

The former premier said that the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) was affected due to the month long sit-ins "but inspite of that, the country progress". 

Sharif said this in an interview with the BBC on Thursday ? his first detailed interview with foreign news media since his ouster as prime minister after the Supreme Court disqualified him on July 28 in the Panama Papers case.

Nawaz was ousted by former army chief Pervez Musharraf in a bloodless coup in 1999. After the coup, he was jailed and later allowed to leave the country and go into exile.
