🇵🇰 Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif contradicts himself on whether Iran’s ballistic missile program is part of the U.S.-Iran negotiations. Video below shows Sharif telling Pakistan’s parliament that the 60-day U.S.-Iran negotiations would address Iran’s ballistic missile program and resolve the issue “in a manner that ensures lasting global peace.” But while hosting Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian today (linked post), he points out: “This MoU does not mention ballistic missiles. It was never on the table; it was never on the agenda. Iran’s side never wanted to even discuss about it.”

Professor PLO Lumumba questions why the destruction of Iran’s nuclear weapons development was cited as a justification for war, given that the Trump administration, through Operation Midnight, announced last year that the United States had already obliterated Iran’s nuclear program. He further observes that Israel’s stated concern appears to have shifted from Iran’s nuclear ambitions to its missile capabilities.
