Iran foreign minister to visit pakistan, india this week

 

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi is undertaking a significant diplomatic mission this week to Pakistan and India amid escalating tensions between the two nuclear-armed neighbors following the deadly April 22 terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Indian-administered Kashmir, which claimed 26 lives, including Hindu tourists. India has accused Pakistan of involvement in the attack, a claim Islamabad denies, leading to heightened military alerts, border skirmishes, and the suspension of key bilateral agreements such as the Indus Waters Treaty and the Shimla Agreement. In Islamabad, Araghchi met with Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif to discuss de-escalation strategies and regional stability.

He is scheduled to visit New Delhi later this week to engage with Indian officials, although India traditionally resists third-party mediation in its disputes with Pakistan. Iran's initiative underscores its growing role in regional diplomacy, aiming to prevent further deterioration of relations between India and Pakistan and to promote dialogue over confrontation.
