It would be a “disaster” for the Gulf countries if there’s a conflict between the U.S. and Iran, Pakistan’s prime minister said on Wednesday, reports CNBC.

“The impact a conflict would have, I repeat, on the oil prices. It just ... would be a disaster for the whole area,” Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan told CNBC’s Hadley Gamble at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.

When asked if he thinks U.S. President Donald Trump wants dialogue with Tehran, Khan said that would be “sensible.”

“Just look at Afghanistan it’s almost now 19 years,” he said. “We’re still finding a solution, still trying to get peace talks going.”

“Does the U.S. want another conflict?” he asked. “Trust me, Iran will be (a) much, much more difficult conflict than even Afghanistan.”
