A high-level source in Tehran reported on Wednesday that Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi is set to visit Pakistan on Friday, August 7. During his visit, Araghchi is scheduled to hold meetings with prominent Pakistani officials, including Army Chief Marshal
Asim Munir, Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif, and Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar. This visit comes amidst intensive diplomatic movements between Tehran and Islamabad concerning regional developments, particularly the tensions between Iran and the United States, and indirect negotiations
related to regional security arrangements. Although the official agenda has not been disclosed, the visit takes place as Pakistan plays a mediating role between Iran and Washington, aiming to reach understandings on issues such as the situation in the Strait
of Hormuz and sanctions. Araghchi's visit follows intensive contacts between officials from both countries, as Islamabad seeks to maintain balanced relations with both Tehran and Washington, and to prevent the escalation of military tensions in the region.
