Now, this is another fine example of how GCC countries have been supporting Pakistan and showing their gratitude while Iran has only sponsored terrorism and used Pakistani nationals for terrorism in the region in the name of the sect.
Can any pro-Iranian point out a single such project that Iran did in Pakistan?
However, people of Pakistan see the top terrorists in Pakistan bearing Iranian passport and nationality.

Just stay away from Back stabbers.

You mean iran and india since they support KY and UB and many other terrorists.

Pakistan don't needs GCC hospitals Pakistan needs GCC to stop putting our people in hospital. The 2 days ago attack on Chaman border placed 42 injured civilians in hospitals now every one knows the man who ordered the attack the commander Abdual Razzaq is how close to UAE. So please help me here UAE and India are the two main countries that control Northern alliance and yet our borders are not secure? Any ways if you are a Pakistani you need to open your eyes my friend.

you should go through this news first
ISLAMABAD:
Afghanistan’s government has not yet accepted senior UAE security officials’ repeated requests to question the Kandahar police chief and his associates about last month’s deadly bombing which killed five Emirati diplomats and seven other people. UAE Ambassador Juma Mohammed Abdullah al Kaabi and Kandahar Governor Dr Humayun Azizi were among the scores injured in the attack.

Officials had later confirmed that the explosives were taken inside the governor’s compound, a comprehensive security zone, and were hidden in a sofa. No one could have entered the governor’s office without a thorough search and high-level clearance.

No group has claimed responsibility for the attack so far. Two UAE teams, comprising senior security officials, had been in Kandahar and Kabul to investigate the bombing that shocked the Gulf state.

Dubai police blames Afghans for Kandahar atrocity

“UAE security officials had sought permission to question [Kandahar police chief] General Abdul Raziq and some senior Afghan security officials but President Ashraf Ghani did not accept the request,” an Emirati diplomatic source, privy to the visits of the UAE investigators, told The Express Tribune on Sunday. The source said the UAE officials wanted to question the Kandahar police chief as he was directly responsible for the security of the diplomats.

“The [UAE] security personnel wanted to know how explosives were taken inside the compound and who had allowed the people to enter the guesthouse during the high profile visit. The investigation will be incomplete until UAE security officials question Gen Raziq and officials close to him,” the source said.

“Gen Raziq had left the guest house just five to 10 minutes before the bomb ripped through the building. He had also arrived at the guesthouse before the arrival of the governor,” they said.

Abdul Hanan Muneeb, who has been appointed as acting Kandahar governor, has not yet shared the result of the bombing investigation and whether it has uncovered the perpetrators who was behind it.

Pakistan - UAE ties are more deeper than they look like, other than UAE sponsored projects in pakistan, we should not forget about 1.2 million pakistanies work in UAE and 1.9 million in KSA and these Pakistanies sending back about 10.5 billion $ a year, every country watch its interests in a diplomatic way, being a nation we have an attitude that suddenly we become hyper and start talking those things which we dont need to

Indeed. Iran, along with Afghanistan have always disappointed Pakistan.

We have Iranian loyalists who are trying to be more Iranian than iranian themselves...They start abusing Pakistan even if there is aggression from Iran,so admiring something coming positive from Arabs is very far fetched...

Good sign of brotherhood.

If giving jobs and providing funds for construction projects is backstabbing, then you are absolutely right.
I have a friend, more loyal to Iranian mullah regime than mullah himself. Currently he's doing job in UAE, but he never forgets to unleash his fury upon UAE as per will of Iranian mullah. Despite all his loyalty, mullah is unable to provide him a single job and to many other like him, who are more Iranian than Iranian themselves.
I wish, I could see some simillar projects from Iran in Pakistan and not projects like Kulbhushan and Uzair Baloch.
I wish, I could understand meaning of backstabbing.
