As US-Iran negotiations remain stalled, Iranian officials are questioning Pakistan's suitability as a mediator due to its perceived alignment with US interests. Ebrahim Rezaei, a member of Iran's parliament, stated that while Pakistan is a good neighbor, it lacks the credibility to mediate effectively. He criticized Islamabad for prioritizing US interests, particularly under former President Donald Trump, and highlighted the failure of recent talks held in Pakistan, which did not yield any agreements. Other Iranian lawmakers echoed these sentiments, labeling the decision to host discussions in Pakistan a 'tactical error' and expressing concerns that it could lead to unfavorable concessions for Iran. They argue that sensitive negotiations, particularly those related to nuclear policy, should occur in more neutral settings to ensure fairness and impartiality. This skepticism reflects a broader unease within Iran regarding the effectiveness of Pakistan's role in facilitating dialogue with the US.
