Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif said on Tuesday he considered ending the conflict between Saudi Arabia and Iran a sacred mission.
“Pakistan will appoint a focal person for the resolution of the issue and will ask the two countries also designate focal persons [to resolve the issue],” he said while talking to media after the meeting with Iranian President Hassan Rowhani.
PM Nawaz said Riyadh and Tehran were cognizant of the threat of terrorism and extremism, adding the Muslim world needed to bring unity in their ranks. He added, “Pakistan is proud to have taken up role of a mediator.”
The prime minister and army chief General Raheel Sharif arrived in Tehran following their brief visit to Saudi Arabia in a bid to mend ties between the arch-rivals.
