ISLAMABAD – In a major diplomatic breakthrough, Pakistan is set to host high-level delegations from the United States and Iran this week, signalling a potential end to decades of hostility.
Sources reveal that the delegations will arrive in the capital by Monday evening, with formal negotiations expected to commence on Tuesday. The American side is likely to include Vice President JD Vance, Steve Witkoff, and Jared Kushner, while Iran is expected to be represented by Speaker Baqir Qalibaf and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi.
The “Carrot and Stick” Approach President Donald Trump confirmed the development, stating that his representatives are heading to Islamabad with a “very good deal.” However, his offer came with a severe ultimatum. “We are close to a deal, but if it fails, Iran’s power plants and bridges will be destroyed,” Trump warned, emphasizing that this is the final opportunity for a peaceful resolution.
Pakistan’s Role as Mediator The role of Pakistan has been pivotal in maintaining the trust of both Washington and Tehran. Sources indicate that while a final agreement is yet to be signed, the upcoming round in Islamabad is seen as a “decisive phase” that could reshape Middle Eastern geopolitics.
