Pakistan, Iran made ‘significant progress’ in talks on conflict, says minister

Pakistani and Iranian officials concluded two days of high-level talks in Tehran on Tuesday, with Pakistan's Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi stating that significant progress was made in discussions surrounding the US-Israeli war on Iran. The talks primarily focused on measures to prevent the conflict from escalating further, reopening the Strait of Hormuz, and the prompt termination of hostilities.

During the meetings, the Iranian President shared his government's perspective on the matter, with Naqvi noting a constructive exchange about the key issues involved. Pakistani Army Chief Asim Munir paid a visit to Tehran, and before departing, spoke with US President Donald Trump. In his previous week, Trump had warned of economic repercussions against any country providing support to Iran, as part of his efforts to isolate the nation. In response, Iran announced its intent to cease all oil exports from the Gulf.
