FM Dar to Visit China on 31 March for Talks on Regional Tensions

Pakistan’s Ishaq Dar visits China to advance mediation between the US and Iran and discuss regional stability amid ongoing Middle East conflict, officials said.

  • On Tuesday, Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar arrived in China at the invitation of Chinese Foreign Minister Wang to discuss regional tensions and bilateral ties.
  • Pakistan has emerged as a key facilitator between the United States and Iran, with officials confirming that indirect exchanges continue through structured message relays rather than direct contact.
  • "FM Dar's decision to undertake the visit, despite medical advice to rest following a hairline shoulder fracture sustained yesterday, reflects the importance Pakistan attaches to its relationship with China," the Foreign Office added.
  • Chinese Foreign Minister Wang noted that initiating peace talks is "no easy task," but agreed with Dar to jointly promote a ceasefire and ensure safety of key waterways.
  • The ongoing war, which began February 28, has caused global economic pain due to Iran's effective blockade of oil and gas shipments through the Strait of Hormuz.
