This week on GPS with Fareed Zakaria, an exclusive interview with former Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf. If Pakistan and Afghanistan are the biggest global stories of the moment (and they are), the man who can shed the most light on them is surely Pervez Musharraf – the man who resigned from power in Pakistan just nine months ago.

Musharraf, speaking on CNN’s "Fareed Zakaria GPS," said he wishes the current government well and that he "would be the happiest person" if the nation deals well with threats such as the growing political and martial strength of the Taliban.

"If Pakistan is in trouble and if any Pakistani, myself included — if you can see that we can do something for it — well … my life is for Pakistan," he said.

He noted that Zardari, the widower of former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto, was elected by two-thirds of Pakistan’s parliament.

"Democratically, he’s elected by two-thirds. And these are the people who are the representatives of the same people you’re talking of — 19 percent in favor … ," he said.
