Prime Minister of Pakistan Imran Khan has called on the US to lift “unjust” sanctions on Iran so it can focus on winning the battle against the coronavirus pandemic.
“I would stress and insist to the international community to lift the sanctions on Iran,” Khan said at a press conference on Friday regarding the coronavirus outbreak.
“It is very unjust they are dealing with such a large outbreak on one side, and on the other they are facing international sanctions,” Khan told reporters in Islamabad.
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani had earlier sent a letter to Khan requesting Islamabad’s help amid the coronavirus outbreak.
