Federal Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry said on Monday that Lebanon's Prime Minister Saad El-Din Rafik Al-Hariri had regretted playing a role in striking a deal between former premier Nawaz Sharif and ex-president Pervez Musharraf.
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.
“The Sharif family did not fulfil it's commitment due to which I faced embarrassment,” the minister said while quoting the Lebanon prime minister.
Earlier in the day, while addressing a news conference Finance Minister Asad Umar also said that the Lebanese PM had acknowledged that helping the Sharif family for securing deal with Musharraf was his mistake.
