I think this is more of a Nawaz Shariff Holiday trip to Persian Hot springs and the alleys of Tehran-A holiday along with feet on Iranian Carpets near a Persian cat, like he went to Europe and the US and almost every country in the world in just a year or more.Only the simple Pakistani people dont know that he is not extending the diplomatic nation of Pakistan, because for the world, noo such nation exists.Lol.
Good luck. Prime minister.I hope Iran will responde and welcome well to our PM and that will pave the way for smooth relationship to next important neighbors.
