Diplomacy in Action: Pakistan-Iran Talks Foster Regional Stability

Pezeshkian praised Pakistan’s diplomacy and said expanded trade, academic exchange and scientific cooperation could deepen ties as both sides sought to ease tensions.

  • On Sunday, Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi met Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian in Tehran for nearly 90 minutes, focusing on regional security and efforts to consolidate a fragile ceasefire between Iran and the United States.
  • Pakistan remains a key mediator between Tehran and Washington as the ceasefire hangs by a thread; President Donald Trump warned Sunday the 'clock is ticking for Iran,' signaling urgency in diplomatic efforts.
  • According to the Fars news agency, Washington has demanded Iran keep only one nuclear site and refused to release 'even 25 per cent' of frozen assets, conditioning ceasefire progress on starting negotiations.
  • Naqvi also met Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, who ridiculed regional governments relying on the United States for security, stating 'Recent events have shown that this presence not only fails to create security but also lays the groundwork for insecurity.'
  • Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar discussed the 'evolving regional situation' with Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty, as Pakistan continues leveraging diplomatic ties with Qatari and Egyptian leaders to stabilize the region through multilateral engagement.
