Pak Foreign Minister Dar condemns ‘unwarranted attacks’ on Iran

Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar on Saturday condemned the “unwarranted attacks” on Iran by Israel and the US, demanding an immediate cessation of the conflict. 

Dar said this while talking over the phone to Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi, who called the Pakistani leader after his country was attacked.

According to a statement by the Foreign Office, Dar and Araghchi reviewed the evolving situation in Iran and the wider region.

It said that Dar “strongly condemned the unwarranted attacks against Iran and called for an immediate halt to escalation through urgent resumption of diplomacy to achieve a peaceful, negotiated resolution to the crisis”.
