Pakistan's Army Chief, Field Marshal Asim Munir, is expected to travel to the United States following his visit to Tehran as part of Islamabad's ongoing mediation efforts to resolve the conflict between Washington and Tehran.
According to Operative Information Center-OMM, Al Jazeera reported the development citing an official source. Field Marshal Asim Munir and Pakistan's Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi are currently in Iran to continue their diplomatic mission aimed at de-escalating the long-standing tensions between the two nations.
Iranian state television reported that Iranian officials scheduled a meeting with the Pakistani delegation in Tehran on Thursday. The discussions are expected to focus on the progress of Iran-US negotiations and the specific proposals put forward by Washington. This diplomatic push follows a series of talks held in Islamabad on April 11, where both sides acknowledged that a long-term resolution had not yet been reached due to significant remaining differences.
Pakistan has historically maintained a delicate balancing act in its relations with both the United States and its neighbor, Iran. As a key regional player, Islamabad often serves as a diplomatic bridge, seeking to prevent direct military confrontation in the Middle East which could impact regional stability and economic interests. These mediation efforts come at a critical time as US President Donald Trump's administration continues to navigate complex security and nuclear non-proliferation issues in the region.
