Pakistan and Iran made 'significant progress' in talks on conflict, minister says

Pakistan and Iran have made significant progress in talks aimed at preventing further escalation of the conflict, reopening the Strait of Hormuz, and expediting an end to the conflict, according to Pakistan's Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi. The discussions took place during Naqvi's visit to Tehran, where he met with Iranian leaders and army chief Asim Munir.

The talks focused on measures to prevent escalation, reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, and an expedited resolution to the conflict. Iran's President shared his government's perspective, leading to a constructive exchange on the issues involved. The Pakistani military also reported that the two sides exchanged views on regional peace and the path to a negotiated settlement.

US President Donald Trump had spoken with Munir prior to the Tehran visit, with the White House and State Department yet to respond to requests for comment.
