Breaking News: Iran Rejects Pakistan’s Mediation, Cites Trust Deficit and Security Concerns

Pakistan on Saturday rejected media reports suggesting that its efforts to facilitate talks between the United States and Iran had faced obstacles after an initial exchange of proposals.

Calling the reports “baseless” and a “figment of imagination,” foreign office spokesperson Tahir Andrabi dismissed the claims outright.

“We have noted several reports in the media, including on social media, citing so-called official government sources regarding the ongoing conflict in the region and Pakistan's efforts to promote peace and dialogue,” a PTI report cited him.
