Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi arrived in Islamabad, Pakistan, to engage in discussions aimed at addressing the ongoing conflict in West Asia. Iran has explicitly stated that no direct talks with the United States will occur during this visit. Instead, Tehran's views will be conveyed through Pakistan, which is acting as a mediator. Esmaeil Baqaei, spokesperson for Iran's Foreign Ministry, emphasized the goal of restoring peace in the region, labeling the conflict as an 'American-imposed war of aggression.' Political analyst Seyed Mohammad Marandi reiterated that Araghchi would not engage with US representatives, dismissing reports of planned direct negotiations as misinformation from the White House. Meanwhile, US officials, including Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, are preparing for discussions in Islamabad, with the White House confirming that talks will occur with Pakistan's facilitation. Amid these developments, US President Donald Trump indicated that Iran may present a proposal to meet US demands, which include the cessation of enriched uranium stockpiling and ensuring free oil shipment movements through the Strait of Hormuz. As diplomatic efforts intensify, Islamabad is emerging as a crucial venue for dialogue.
