Pakistani Delegation Arrives in Iran to Deliver Message From the US
Pakistani military chief Aim Muna led a delegation to Tehran, carrying a message from Washington aimed at reviving direct talks between the United States and Iran. The visit follows a series of back‑channel exchanges that began after the Islamabad round of negotiations collapsed on Sunday. Both sides have used Pakistan as a conduit, with Iranian officials confirming receipt of the U.S. communication and Pakistani officials saying they will help set the timing for the next round, likely in Islamabad. Regional actors, notably Turkey’s President Erdogan and Saudi Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, are also urging an extension of the temporary cease‑fire and urging parties back to the table. Iranian foreign‑ministry sources noted that the delegation will meet senior officials, including Foreign Minister Hossein Amir‑Abdollahian, to finalize details. U.S. officials in the embassy reported heightened security, booked hotels, and preparations for an imminent event, underscoring the urgency of the diplomatic push. If successful, the talks could halt the escalating conflict, restore a channel for crisis management, and elevate Pakistan’s standing as a regional mediator, while offering the United States a pathway to address its strategic concerns without further military escalation.
