US-Iran peace talks: Pakistan Army chief Asim Munir to visit Tehran today

Pakistan Army Chief Field Marshall Asim Munir is set to travel to the Iranian capital of Tehran on Thursday as a part of the ongoing Pakistan-led mediation and consultation between Iran and the US ‌to stop the war, Reuters reported citing local media.

Meanwhile, Pakistan Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi is already in Tehran, his second visit to the Iranian power centre in a week.

Naqvi has departed for Tehran to discuss the US-Iran peace talks with Iranian leaders.

During his previous visit, Naqvi met with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf and Interior Minister Eskandar Momeni over the weekend.

The latest visit came as Trump on Tuesday offered a deadline of several days for resuming strikes if a deal is not agreed. On Monday, he said that Gulf Arab leaders asked him to hold off on an attack at the 11th hour.
