ISLAMABAD: Pakistan condemned on Sunday (Jun 22) the strikes ordered on its neighbour Iran by Donald Trump, a day after Islamabad had mentioned it will nominate the US President for the Nobel Peace Prize.
Pakistan on Sunday mentioned Trump’s determination to bomb Iranian nuclear services violated worldwide regulation and that diplomacy was the one option to resolve the Iran disaster.
“The unprecedented escalation of rigidity and violence, owing to ongoing aggression in opposition to Iran is deeply disturbing. Any additional escalation of tensions may have severely damaging implications for the area and past,” Pakistan’s Ministry of Overseas Affairs mentioned.
Additionally on Sunday, Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif telephoned Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian and “conveyed Pakistan’s condemnation of the US assaults,” an announcement from the Pakistani chief mentioned.
Pakistan’s info minister and the overseas ministry didn’t reply to requests for touch upon the obvious contradiction within the nation’s positions over the weekend.
