Trump Spoke With Pak Army Chief Last Week Ahead Of Iran Visit: Report
A source familiar with the conversation confirmed to CNN that Trump spoke with Munir last week and discussed Iran with the Pakistani Army chief.
US President Donald Trump engaged in a phone conversation with Pakistan Army Chief Asim Munir prior to Munir's visit to Tehran, as reported by CNN. The discussion reportedly centered on Iran. Iranian state broadcaster IRIB stated that Munir conversed with Major General Mohsen Rezaei, who headed Iran's Supreme National Security Council. Rezaei expressed concern over the United States' behavior, urging it to alter its approach and adhere to the terms of the memorandum of understanding.
Earlier on Monday, Iran's Parliamentary Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf met with Asim Munir in Tehran. Ghalibaf criticized the United States for violating commitments under the 14-point Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed in June to resolve hostilities in West Asia and initiate technical talks, including on the Strait of Hormuz and Iran's nuclear program. The MoU's commitments, according to Ghalibaf, were not fulfilled by America, which had caused instability in the region and increased distrust.
Ghalibaf emphasized that Iran was still committed to implementing the MoU's terms and was not influenced by external pressure. During the meeting, Munir also expressed his intention to continue striving for regional stability, stating that he would persist in his efforts.
