Pakistan signals Iran-UStalks in 'coming days'
Pakistan on Sunday signalled a senior officer external breakthrough, with Deputy Premier and External affairs chief Senator Ishaq Dar announcing that Islamabad could host high-stakes dialogue between Iran and the United States "in the coming days" amid intensifying efforts to de-escalate a rapidly deteriorating regional protection condition.
The formal declaration came at the conclusion of the second round of quadrilateral consultations involving external ministers from Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Turkiye and Egypt, held in Islamabad. This was part of a coordinated push by key Muslim countries to seek an end to the ongoing dispute in the Middle East.
"I briefed the visiting brother external ministers about the prospects of potential US-Iran dialogue in Islamabad. The visiting external ministers expressed their fullest backing for this drive," Dar stated in a televised comment after the four-way dialogue.
"Pakistan will be honoured to host and facilitate meaningful dialogue between the two sides… for a comprehensive and lasting settlement," Dar stated, adding that both Tehran and Washington had expressed confidence in Islamabad's role as a neutral intermediary.
The progress marks a significant external moment for Pakistan, which has quietly positioned itself as a key intermediary between the United States and Iran in recent weeks.
Islamabad had already played a behind-the-scenes role in transmitting a 15-point US suggested strategy to Tehran, a move seen as laying the groundwork for possible direct engagement.
