Republican Senator Lindsey Graham has once again questioned Pakistan's credibility as a "mediator" between the United States and Iran in ongoing ceasefire parley, pointing to Islamabad's long-standing hostility towards Israel and calling its role "problematic".
The remarks came after Pakistan's defence minister Khawaja Muhammad Asif rejected US President Donald Trump’s appeal for Islamabad to join the Abraham Accords. Asif said Pakistan would not back any agreement that went against the country’s "fundamental ideologies".
