While writing on his Twitter handle, Fawad said Prime Minister Imran Khan during his meeting with the Lebanon premier discussed the speculations of any National Reconciliation Ordinance (NRO)-like deal with Sharif, on which, Harriri said it was his mistake to request the former military ruler to strike a deal with Sharif.
