Raheel Sharif will not hurt Iran's interests: Nasser Janjua

[RajaRawal111]

National Security Adviser (NSA) Lieutenant-General (retd) Nasser Khan Janjua on Friday assured General (retd) Raheel Sharif is a well-wisher of Iran and his possible role as chief of Saudi-led military coalition will not hurt Tehrans interests.

Addressing a conference, Janjua said the former army chiefs decisions as head of the Saudi-led military coalition will not be against Iran or Saudi Arabia.
Pakistan and Iran appear to be at odds over the possible role of the former army chief in Saudi-led counter-terrorism alliance as Tehran has voiced its concerns over Islamabads decision to give the greenlight to Raheel to lead the multi-nation coalition.

Iran is known to have opposed the Saudi initiative because of its serious differences with the oil-rich kingdom over the current unrest in the Middle East, particularly in Syria and Yemen.

Earlier this week, Iran for the first time publicly expressed its displeasure over Pakistans move to allow Raheel to lead the 39-nation alliance Saudi Arabia had cobbled together in December 2015. Irans state IRNA news agency quoted the countrys Ambassador in Islamabad Mehdi Honardoost as saying that Tehran had reservations over the issuance of a no-objection certificate (NoC) by the Pakistan government to the former army chief.

Really wish Pakistan to protect the rights of Iran as well. We must not fall in the trap of further dividing the Muslim Ummah.
We had to accept it but there is a real danger that we will become part of this SIN. May Allah keep us on right track and help us (Aameen)

He got a job of Guarding and protecting Saudi Royal Balls from being castrated by some poor angry Hooti. He is getting royally paid for this royal service. After all his Prime Minister also got bailed out by Royal Balls. Following the foot prints of his ex boss.
