Preliminary talks between the United States and Iran have reportedly begun in Islamabad, with Pakistan facilitating a rare trilateral meeting, according to sources.
A Pakistani source indicated that an initial session took place in person with delegations from Iran, the United States, and Pakistan present in the same room.
If confirmed, this would mark the first known instance of Iranian and US delegations meeting face to face in a trilateral format involving Pakistan.
The session is said to be chaired by Pakistan’s army chief, highlighting the military’s direct role in the mediation process.
Details remain limited, and no official confirmation has yet been issued by the parties involved.
Observers note that such a development, if verified, could represent a significant shift in the diplomatic dynamics between Washington and Tehran.
Angle Analysis:
The reported meeting suggests a potential breakthrough from indirect to direct engagement, but the lack of confirmation and the role in mediation add layers of uncertainty to its significance.
