Pakistan’s top envoy in Iran’s capital Tehran Muadasir Tipu taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, said that Pakistan has always stood by the Iran through ‘thick and thin’.
The de-escalating words came from Pakistan’s ambassador in Iran, the next day after Pakistan conducted military strikes deep inside Iran—the city of Serevan—and killed non-Iranian terrorists involved in targeting security forces in Pakistan.
Muadasir Tipu said that cooperation and mutual trust between two brotherly countries, in a complex regional environment, is critical for peace and stability.
“Pakistan resolutely stands for its values to promote peace, stability, and development,” he added.
Iran's foreign ministry's statement
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran condemns Pakistan’s unbalanced and unacceptable drone attack on non-Iranian villagers on the border of the two countries.
At the same time, the IR Iran adheres to the policy of good neighborliness & brotherhood between the two nations and the two governments of the Islamic Republic of Iran and Pakistan. It does not allow enemies to strain the amicable and brotherly relations of Tehran and Islamabad.
Iran considers the security of its people & its territorial integrity as a red line & strongly expects the friendly & brotherly government of Pakistan to adhere to its obligations in preventing the establishment of bases & the deployment of armed terrorist groups on its soil.
On Jan 16th 2024 IRGC Border Taskforce of Ground Force, situated in Sistan & Baluchistan, took a preventive action against a terrorist group preparing to infiltrate the territory of Iran to carry out another terrorist operation similar to the criminal & terrorist attack in Rask.
The action was carried out against the terrorist group's barracks and headquarters located in the heights of the region, kilometers away from residential areas––a procedure which is part of the inherent duties of the border forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran to “proportionately deal” with any “imminent terrorist threat” against the people and citizens of the country. It is emphasized that the Islamic Republic of Iran differentiates between Pakistan's friendly and brotherly government and armed terrorists.
The Islamic Republic of Iran always adheres to its policy of good neighborliness and does not allow its enemies and terrorist allies to strain these relations, especially when the genocide and crimes of the Zionist regime are the foremost issue affecting the Islamic world.
