Pakistan’s hypocrisy was visible, first it criticized American attacks and then started cursing Iran’s actions.

Once again the whole world is watching Pakistan’s hypocrisy. On one hand, the government of Pakistan condemns the attacks by America and Israel on Iran, while on the other hand it is also criticizing the retaliatory attacks carried out by Iran on the Gulf countries. It is clear from this that Pakistan is trying to board two boats.

Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar condemned Israel and America’s attacks on Iran and called them unjustified. At the same time, Pakistani Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif has criticized the attacks carried out by Iran in Saudi Arabia and Gulf countries. He made several posts on the social media platform

He also said in a social media post that the government and people of Pakistan join the people of Iran in their hour of grief and mourning and express their condolences on the martyrdom of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei. He said that Pakistan has expressed concern over the violation of international norms. He also said that it has been an old tradition that heads of state and government should not be targeted.

Contrary to this stance of the Pakistani government, the people there seem to be standing with Iran. A large section of Pakistani people are very angry with the assassination of Khamenei and they seem to be very angry with Israel and America. Protests have taken place in many cities, where people were seen raising slogans in support of Iran and against America-Israel policies. The most violent form of Pakistani public was seen in Karachi, where the situation went out of control outside the American Consulate.

During the protests here, clashes took place outside the embassy, ​​in which at least 10 people died. This incident shows how emotions are running high inside Pakistan and as the government there is trying to show itself balanced in these circumstances, the attitude of the Pakistani people seems to be very different.
