Pakistani army chief's Iran visit unlikely to yield results, analyst says
Researcher Wijdan Abdulrahman says Pakistan's army chief's trip to Iran will not break the deadlock amid ongoing US-Iran tensions.
Pakistani army chief Asim Munir's impending trip to Iran appears unlikely to yield any significant results, according to analyst Wijdan Abdulrahman. In an interview with Al Arabiya FM, Abdulrahman stated that the visit will not break the deadlock in the face of ongoing US-Iran tensions. The tensions persist between the United States and Iran, with both countries exchanging threats and Tehran ramping up its rhetoric against regional nations.
While there had been optimism about negotiations through Pakistani mediation, now backed by regional states, the situation has evolved. With only hours left until US Treasury Secretary Scott Besant announces new sanctions on Iran, Abdulrahman highlighted that Iran's Secretary of Supreme National Security Council, Mohsen Rezaei, has shown no flexibility regarding talks with the United States.
Rezaei had previously declared that any country's involvement in or support for the US economic war against Iran would be considered an act of war.
