Pakistan PM says there should not be double standards over Iran having ballistic missiles Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said on Tuesday that there should be no double standards where some countries are permitted to have ballistic missiles while Iran is not. Sharif told reporters that there was no mention of ballistic missiles in the memorandum of understanding agreed between the US and Iran because it was “never on the table”. He added that Pakistan would like to continue its role in mediating negotiations until a lasting peace is achieved.
