On April 25, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi met with Pakistan Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir in Islamabad to discuss regional developments amid ongoing tensions between the US and Iran. This meeting is part of Pakistan's initiative to facilitate dialogue between the two nations. Although no direct talks between Washington and Tehran are scheduled, the Iranian delegation's visit is seen as an opportunity to convey Iran's observations to Pakistan. Araghchi, who arrived in Islamabad on April 24, expressed the importance of coordinating with regional partners. Meanwhile, the US is sending a delegation, including Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and advisor Jared Kushner, to engage with the Iranian team. The backdrop of these discussions includes a recent ceasefire extension by the US, which aims to provide Iran with more time to propose a unified plan to end the ongoing conflict that began on February 28, 2023, following US-Israeli strikes.
