Pakistan will not become part of any coalition isolating Iran: Official
Shares
Pakistan High Commissioner to India Abdul Basit has said Iran had excellent ties with Pakistan and ties with Gulf States. We are part of that military alliance that was against terrorism, not against any particular country. About the views expressed at Summit in Riyadh about isolating Iran, he said Pakistan was not subscribed to those views.
He said Pakistan’s relations with Saudi Arabia and Gulf states were very important and the ties with Iran were equally important, so Pakistan would not like to take sides.
He said Pakistan’s effort would be to become a bridge between Saudi Arabia and Iran, if that is possible.
About allegations from Afghanistan on Kabul bombing, he said it was not anything new. Pakistan itself was victim of terror. Being a victim, Pakistan could never condone terrorism in any form or manifestation.- APP
