‘Significant progress made in conflict talks’


The country and Iran made “significant progress” in talks that focused on the US-Israeli conflict with Iran and a path to peace, Pakistan’s interior minister said at the end of a visit to Teheran.

Talks between the two sides focused on measures to prevent further escalation, reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and an expedited termination of the conflict, a statement from the Pakistani mili­tary said about the meeting bet­ween the country’s army chief, Asim Munir, and the Iranian lea­dership.

The two sides also exchanged views on regional peace and the way to arrive at a negotiated settlement to the dispute, the statement said.

“The Iranian President candidly shared his government’s pers­pective and we had a very cons­tructive exchange on the issues involved,” Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi, who accompanied Asim to Teheran, said. — Reuters
