PKR president Anwar Ibrahim today downplayed Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi's dismissal of his previous claim of discussions between their parties ahead of the 15th general elections.
Asked for comments on Zahid's speech at the Umno annual general assembly last weekend, Anwar said: "I think he is referring to the earlier decision of the Umno supreme council."
In his policy speech to Umno delegates on Sunday, Zahid stressed that the party did not have any negotiations with any other party, contrary to Anwar's previous claims of ongoing initial-stage talks.
