Iran’s Ambassador to Pakistan Mehdi Honardoost has offered that Iran was ready to play mediator role using its special influence and relations with Pakistan and India to resolve Kashmir.
In an interview with a news agency , Honardoost said that Iranian government had announced its readiness for any support, for any hope of peace and tranquility in the region.
However, the ambassador clarified that neither side has put in a formal request for mediation yet.
“We have not yet received any official request from both sides for Iran as a large country in the region to come and try to solve the matter,” he said.
The ambassador maintained that any conflict or tension between the two countries would hinder their progress and also impact upon the economies of the other countries in the region.
“It is important to remove such tensions to ensure sustainable and durable peace in the region,” he added.
Talking about terrorism in the region he said that terrorism is a global phenomenon, “It’s not located only in one area or in one country, and it is the consequence of the approach of the super powers towards terrorism.”
He said “If we analyse terrorism, on one hand the super powers have been supporting some sort of terrorist elements against the host country’s government and on the other they have been fighting against it on some other time or in some other country.”
