Pakistan says it will host US-Iran talks, while Iran warns US ground troops would be ‘set on fire’

Pakistan will host talks to end the month-long Iran-US conflict amid Iran's warning of retaliation if US ground troops deploy, with over 3,000 killed so far, officials said.

  • On Sunday, Pakistan announced it will soon host talks between the United States and Iran, though it remained unclear whether the discussions would be direct or indirect.
  • Pakistan has emerged as a key mediator for the monthlong war, leveraging relatively good ties with both Washington and Tehran to facilitate dialogue between the two sides.
  • Iranian parliament speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf dismissed the talks as a cover after 2,500 U.S. Marines trained in amphibious landings arrived in the Middle East, warning Iranian forces were waiting to "punish their regional partners forever."
  • Foreign ministers from Turkey, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia met in Islamabad to endorse Pakistan's peace efforts, with diplomats expected to convene again on Monday to discuss ending the conflict.
  • Iran reportedly drafted a five-point counterproposal demanding "exercise of sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz," while the United States previously presented a 15-point "action list" as a framework for a possible peace deal.
