Iran K Israel After the attack on Pakistanis Foreign Office in the Middle East on Sunday stress Expressing concern over the increase, he said that all parties should show patience for peace and stability in the region.
After firing more than 100 drones and missiles at Israel between Saturday and Sunday, Iran said in a statement that it had achieved all its objectives.
On the other hand, President Joe Biden said that US forces have helped shoot down almost all Iranian drones and missiles.
After expressing concern over this situation on the part of Pakistan, Independent Urdu has tried to know from the experts that this development Pakistan What will be the effects?
‘There will be no impact on Pakistan’
Former ambassador Abdul Basit says that ‘I don’t think it can have any direct effect on Pakistan. Pakistan’s relations with Iran have never been so pleasant because there have been operations on the Iran-Pakistan border and recently Iran’s attack on Pakistani territory and Pakistan’s counter-action is also an example of this.
He added: ‘Hence, Pakistan will not be part of any bloc on this occasion, nor should Pakistan make any statement that would have any impact on Pakistan’s economy.’
Former ambassador Aqil Nadeem said that this is a response attack, in which Israel was involved, so there is justification for this attack from Iran’s point of view. But now it does not seem that the matter will spread more or lead to the third world war.’
He said that ‘Pakistan will not need to take any side on this issue, so there will be no direct impact on Pakistan. Nor will America need to involve Pakistan. Anyway, Pakistan had a conflict with Iran in the recent past.

Petrol prices may increase?
Analyst Shaukat Paracha says that ‘I don’t see that Pakistan’s economy is linked to Iran, neither Pakistan’s imports nor exports are highly dependent on Iran, due to which there are effects on Pakistan’s economy.
“But if the situation escalates, it may create problems for Pakistan as a neighbor and petrol prices may increase.”
He said that this is a big issue at the international level that Iran will have to bear, the drone fired by Iran did not cause any casualties. So this is Iran’s face saving but Iran will now face more sanctions and Israel will benefit from it.’
After the attack, the Iranian president visited Pakistan
Aqil Nadeem said that ‘Iran’s attack on Israel cannot be compared to the Russian attack on Ukraine. At that time, the visit of the Prime Minister of Pakistan to Russia had different effects.
“Iran has done the attack as a response, it is not a first strike, so the Iranian president’s visit to Pakistan will not have any negative impact.”
According to former Foreign Secretary Salman Bashir: “The Iranian President’s visit to Islamabad will provide an opportunity to take steps to advance bilateral relations and review the current situation.”

He said that Iran launched drones and missiles against Israel in response to the bomb attack on the Damascus embassy. This issue should be resolved without any further escalation by Israel. America has said that it wants a diplomatic alliance against Iran.
“It is important that Israel is prevented from rushing and that the Security Council call for a cease-fire in Gaza be respected,” he said.
‘Pakistan may face pressure’
Karen Juda-Fisher, director of Chinar Think Tank, Washington DC, while talking to Independent Urdu, said that ‘Pakistan will face pressure from the United States on its economic relationship with Iran. There have already been statements by the US that Pakistan may face sanctions if it does a gas pipeline project with Iran.
That is why Pakistan has started its lobbying in America so that Pakistan gets permission. But the question is that after Iran’s recent action, it will be difficult to expect the US to relax on the Iran-Pakistan pipeline project.
He said that ‘Pakistan will have to adopt a policy like India to establish relations with all countries according to its interest.’
