ISLAMABAD – Iran’s Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif has arrived Pakistan for a crucial visit.
He landed in Pakistan Wednesday morning to hold key talks.
This marks the second visit by the Iranian foreign minister to Islamabad since the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) formed the government.
Zarif is expected to meet his Pakistani counterpart, Shah Mehmood Qureshi. He will also call on the prime minister to discuss various matters.
The high profile Iranian visit comes days after the Pakistani premier returned from Saudi Arabia with a $3 billion bailout package. PM Imran after wrapping the tour addressed the nation and expressed willingness to play a role of mediator to end the Yemen crisis where Saudi alliance-backed Yemeni government is fighting against Houthi rebels for past few years.
