Islamabad: Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has returned to Islamabad after completing his visit to the Sultanate of Oman and ahead of his journey to Russia. This visit to Pakistan marks the second time in 48 hours that Araghchi has been in the country as part of his three-nation tour.
According to Islamic Republic News Agency, Araghchi was received at the Nur Khan Air Base by Pakistan's Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi and Iranian Ambassador to Islamabad Reza Amiri Moghadam upon his arrival on Sunday afternoon. The foreign minister is set to engage in consultations regarding regional developments during this visit.
Earlier reports indicated that some members of Araghchi's delegation had returned to Tehran after previous discussions in Islamabad. They sought further guidance on matters concerning the US-Israeli imposed war and were anticipated to reunite with Araghchi in Islamabad on Sunday night, before their onward trip to Moscow.
Araghchi's three-nation visit commenced on Friday night when he first arrived in Islamabad, leading a delegation. During his initial visit, he held separate meetings with Pakistan's Army Chief Asim Munir, Prime Minister Shahbaz Khan, and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar, which lasted until Saturday evening.
Following his engagements in Pakistan, the Iranian foreign minister traveled to Muscat, where he met with the Sultan of Oman, Haitham bin Tariq, and Foreign Minister Badr bin Hamad Al Busaidi. Their discussions focused on bilateral relations and current regional developments.
