Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi has called for restraint between India and Pakistan upon landing in New Delhi, state media reported, a day after India targeted what it says are “terrorist camps” in Pakistan in retaliation for a deadly attack on tourists in occupied Kashmir last month, Reuters reports.
“We hope that India and Pakistan will prevent the escalation of tension in the region,” Araqchi said, reiterating calls for restraint he made during his visit to Pakistan on Monday.
“Our region needs peace, especially to expand economic cooperation between regional countries, and we hope this will happen,” the foreign minister added.
