Iran’s Foreign Ministry said on Sunday that Pakistani Army Chief General Asim Munir will travel to Tehran on Monday for talks aimed at advancing regional stability.
Spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei, speaking to reporters in Cairo, stated that the visit reflects Pakistan’s ongoing efforts to mediate between Iran and the United States. The two nations have been engaged in indirect negotiations, with Islamabad playing a key role in facilitating dialogue to de-escalate tensions.
Baghaei emphasized that the visit aligns with Pakistan’s stated commitment to promoting peace and security in the region. While no specific agenda for the meeting was disclosed, the timing suggests it may address recent diplomatic developments between Iran and Washington.
The announcement follows Pakistan’s broader diplomatic engagement in the Middle East, where it has sought to position itself as a neutral mediator in disputes involving regional powers. The visit comes as both Iran and the United States continue discussions aimed at reducing hostilities, though no breakthroughs have been publicly confirmed.
The Pakistani military leadership’s engagement in regional diplomacy highlights the country’s evolving role in Middle Eastern geopolitics, particularly amid shifting alliances and ongoing conflicts.
