KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim says he does not want to be dragged into the battle for deputy presidency between Datuk Seri Azmin Ali and Rafizi Ramli, and has warned all PKR leaders not to resort to devious methods to win in the party polls. He also dismissed claims that he was impatient to be premier, and had a strained relationship with Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad. Anwar said he gave Dr Mahathir his full confidence without encumbrance to lead the nation. Anwar reiterated that Dr Mahathir would continue to run the country while he focused on the affairs of Parliament. “I have discussed with Dr Mahathir; if anything, I will inform him first,” he said.
