Iran has expressed gratitude to Pakistan for its diplomatic efforts in facilitating talks with the United States during the ongoing conflict. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi acknowledged Pakistan’s role as a mediator and reiterated that Iran has not refused dialogue, particularly in Islamabad. However, Tehran emphasized that any negotiations must lead to a “conclusive and lasting” end to the war rather than a temporary ceasefire. Pakistan has been actively engaging both sides, proposing peace frameworks and hosting potential talks. The development highlights Islamabad’s growing diplomatic role in easing tensions and promoting dialogue between Washington and Tehran. (PC: AFP)
