Pakistan and Iran have announced "significant progress" in their recent talks aimed at addressing issues related to the US-Israel conflict, according to the Pakistani interior minister. This announcement follows a diplomatic mission by Pakistan's army chief and interior minister to Tehran, where they engaged with Iranian officials to explore pathways for peace and regional stability.

according to Reuters and Channel News Asia.

During this mission, key discussions included critical measures to prevent further escalation of the conflict, the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, and the need for a negotiated settlement. "The Iranian President candidly shared his government's perspective, and we had a constructive exchange," Naqvi stated, highlighting the positive nature of the dialogues.

The Pakistani military noted that the meetings aimed to reinvigorate the "Islamabad MoU," an interim framework intended to facilitate peace, which had faltered in the past. Discussions further included the Iranian leadership's call for the United States to amend its approach towards Tehran, with President Masoud Pezeshkian urging a shift away from coercive tactics.
