ISLAMABAD: Pakistan has emerged as a key intermediary between Iran and the United States to try to secure talks to end their war in the Gulf.
On Thursday, Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar confirmed Islamabad was involved, saying “US-Iran indirect talks are taking place through messages being relayed by Pakistan.”
“Pakistan has strong credentials as the only country in the region enjoying good relations with the US and Iran,” said the country’s former ambassador to Tehran, Asif Durrani.
“Concurrently, it enjoys strategic relations with Saudi Arabia, the Gulf states and Turkiye,” he told AFP, using Turkiye’s official name.
