Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif stated that his country's memorandum of understanding with the US does not include Iran's ballistic missiles, as the issue was never raised and Tehran never agreed to discuss it, according to a report attributed to journalist Tzvi Yechezkeli.
Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif clarified on Tuesday evening that his country's memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the United States explicitly excludes discussion of Iran's ballistic missiles. The statement, reported by journalist Tzvi Yechezkeli, directly addresses speculation that the MOU—reportedly part of broader US-Iran talks—could encompass missile limitations. Sharif emphasized that the issue was never on the table and that Iranian officials never agreed to address it. The remarks appear to narrow the scope of any potential diplomatic understanding involving Pakistan and Iran's military capabilities, though no official text of the MOU has been released.
