On Saturday, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi met with Pakistan Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir in Islamabad as part of Pakistan's efforts to mediate between the United States and Iran. The meeting included key Iranian officials and aimed to foster discussions on regional stability. Although Araghchi's visit was anticipated to facilitate dialogue, it was confirmed that no direct meetings between the US and Iran would occur during this trip. Araghchi emphasized the importance of coordinating with neighboring countries on bilateral matters and regional developments. Meanwhile, the US is sending a delegation, including Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, to engage with Iranian representatives, following a previous round of talks that did not yield significant progress.
