Pakistan is poised for renewed diplomatic activity as Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi is expected to arrive in the federal capital tonight with a small delegation, amid growing momentum for a second round of US-Iran talks.
The anticipated visit comes as Islamabad intensifies its facilitation efforts to sustain dialogue between Washington and Tehran, with clear indications that Pakistan may once again serve as the venue for negotiations. Government sources say that talks between Pakistan’s mediation team and both sides have contributed to tangible progress in preparing for a possible fresh round of engagement.
This development follows earlier high-level contacts and continued backchannel coordination, with Islamabad positioning itself as a key facilitator in efforts to de-escalate regional tensions. A US logistics and security team is already present in the city, underscoring practical preparations linked to potential talks.
The expected visit follows a recent telephone conversation between Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar and his Iranian counterpart. The exchange focused on regional developments, prospects for a ceasefire, and continued diplomatic coordination regarding US-Iran tensions; both sides reviewed the evolving situation and emphasized the importance of sustained communication.
