Iran FM to visit India, Pakistan for regular consultations
Esmaeil Baghaei told Press TV on Saturday that Araghchi will arrive in Pakistan on Monday to hold consultations with high-ranking Pakistani officials.
 
The talks will focus on enhancing bilateral relations and addressing the latest developments at the regional and international levels, he said. 
 
Baghaei also confirmed that the top diplomat will pay an official visit to India later in the week.
 
The planned visits will come amid heightened tensions between the two nuclear-armed countries over the April 22 terrorist attack in the Indian-administered Kashmir, which claimed the lives of 26 people.
 
India has blamed Pakistan for the attack, but Pakistan has rejected the accusations.
 
In a telephone conversation with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on April 26, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian condemned the attack and stressed the need for a joint fight against terrorism.
 
In a separate phone call with Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on the same day, Pezeshkian expressed deep concern over the rising tensions between India and Pakistan in the wake of the attack.
 
The Iranian foreign minister also held a phone conversation with Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister, Muhammad Ishaq Dar, on April 26, during which he voiced Tehran’s readiness to help ease tensions between New Delhi and Islamabad.
