THE meeting between Umno and Pas leaders last night did not involve the presidents of either party, says Umno president Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.

He said the engagement was part of routine political discussions on potential areas of cooperation aimed at preserving political stability.

“The meeting did not involve the presidents of either party. It was merely a discussion on potential areas of collaboration, as we do not want the country’s political stability to be undermined.

“We frequently engage in discussions with various parties, particularly our partners in the component parties of Pakatan Harapan.

“In politics, all possibilities remain open because the political landscape is highly dynamic,” he told reporters after a walkabout at Hari TVET Negara 2026 at Dataran Putrajaya.

Zahid, who is also Barisan Nasional chairman and Deputy Prime Minister, said Umno’s doors remained open not only for political dialogue but also for cooperation on national agendas.
