Unconditional supply: Iraq ready to provide oil: ambassador

ISLAMABAD: Iraq is ready to provide oil to Pakistan unconditionally to help it cope with the energy crisis, said the Ambassador of Iraq to Pakistan Dr Rushdial Ani on Wednesday. Talking to a delegation of women entrepreneurs led by President Islamabad Women’s Chamber of Commerce and Industry Samina Fazil, the ambassador said that the international media was intentionally painting gloomy picture of Pakistan to harass investors and isolate this great Islamic country. He said that Iraq considers Pakistan a super power and was ready to help it cope with the current energy crisis by providing oil.

Wow! So a country which has 18 hours of loadshedding and fuel shortages is going to provide oil to another country where consumers would rather steal electricity than pay their bills! Yes, I am sure we will all be flattered that the Iraqi ambassador talking before unofficial guests called us a superpower.
