Messenger at best: Ex-India diplomat on Pakistan's mediation claim

Speaking on Pakistan’s claim of mediating in West Asia war, ex-Indian Ambassador to UAE Sunjay Sudhir said, “It was actually far from being...mediator; it was more of...messenger at best.” "Mediation means...both parties are sitting with you, that never happened," he added. Abdul Majid Hakeem Ilahi, late Iran Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei's aide, had said Iran didn't hold talks with Pakistan.
