Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and Pakistani Foreign Minister Muhammad Ishaq Dar held a telephone conversation to discuss escalating military tensions in the region and potential pathways for restoring peace and stability.
Operative Information Center-OMM reports that Abbas Araghchi shared details of the call on his official Telegram channel. According to the statement, the exchange took place on Saturday night, during which the ministers engaged in a comprehensive review of the latest regional developments and bilateral relations between Tehran and Islamabad.
During the discussions, the Pakistan side outlined its diplomatic efforts aimed at halting military aggression against Iran. Both parties emphasized the critical importance of continued consultations to achieve the shared goal of regional stability. Abbas Araghchi expressed appreciation for these efforts while briefing his counterpart on the impact of strikes carried out by the United States and Israel over the last 35 days. He claimed that these strikes targeted production and industrial infrastructure, peaceful nuclear sites, hospitals, schools, universities, and residential areas.
"Iran will resolutely defend the country's national sovereignty and territorial integrity using all available means," the Iranian Foreign Minister stated during the call.
This diplomatic engagement comes amid a period of heightened volatility in the Middle East, where cross-border strikes and military posturing have raised international concerns. Relations between Iran and Pakistan, two neighboring nations with significant security interests, often involve high-level coordination to manage border security and regional geopolitical shifts. The emphasis on protecting "peaceful nuclear sites" and civilian infrastructure highlights Tehran's current diplomatic priority of garnering regional support against external military pressure.
