Pakistan, Iran and Qatar Reportedly Push Interim US Peace Deal Talks in Tehran
(MENAFN) Intense diplomatic discussions are underway in Tehran involving Pakistani, Iranian, and Qatari representatives as efforts continue to shape a temporary agreement with the United States aimed at ending the ongoing Middle East conflict, according to multiple sources cited in reports.
According to reports, the negotiations are focused on finalizing a provisional framework that could lead to a broader settlement, with officials expecting possible progress within the coming days.
Pakistan’s army chief, Field Marshal Asim Munir, who is currently in Tehran for his second visit in recent weeks, has reportedly been in direct communication with US mediators, including Vice President JD Vance, through at least two phone calls over the past 24 hours.
Munir has also held meetings with senior Iranian officials, including President Masoud Pezeshkian, Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf, and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, where discussions centered on a draft interim arrangement.
According to reports, Pakistani and Qatari delegations are coordinating with both US and Iranian negotiators in an attempt to bridge differences between the two sides.
While a finalized agreement has not yet been reached, sources indicated that negotiators are working toward what they describe as a possible “major breakthrough” by the end of the week.
Reports also suggested that several regional governments are indirectly engaged in the process through consultations with Pakistani and Qatari officials involved in Tehran-based talks.
Iran’s Foreign Ministry confirmed that Qatari officials are holding discussions with Iranian counterparts, including Foreign Minister Araghchi, while Pakistan continues to act as a central mediator in the process.
According to reports, the main sticking points include Iran’s nuclear program and shipping rights through the Strait of Hormuz. The United States is seeking what it describes as “concrete and practical” guarantees within an interim deal, while Iran insists these issues should be addressed in a later phase of negotiations.
