Web Desk: US President Donald Trump has indicated a potential visit to Pakistan, linking the possibility to ongoing diplomatic engagements involving Iran, according to remarks he gave to The New York Post.
In his comments, Trump said senior advisers, including special envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, are expected to travel to Islamabad to represent him in the discussions. However, he stopped short of confirming his own visit, suggesting it would depend on how talks evolve in the coming days.
“I would say maybe at a little bit later date. We have to see how it works out tomorrow,” he said, signaling a cautious approach to any immediate travel plans.
Meanwhile, journalist Gharida Farooqi said in a post on X that Iran’s president could visit Pakistan if an agreement is reached during the negotiations. She added that there is increasing optimism among stakeholders about a possible timeline, with Thursday being considered a potential window for progress.
Her remarks have fueled wider speculation that both Washington and Tehran may be considering Pakistan as a venue for critical diplomatic engagement.
As talks continue, attention has shifted toward Pakistan’s potential role as a neutral ground for dialogue between the United States and Iran. The reported developments come amid renewed efforts to ease tensions and explore a framework for agreement between the two sides.
If negotiations result in a deal and are followed by visits from both leaders, it would represent a notable diplomatic development. Such a scenario could place Pakistan at the center of a significant international effort aimed at stabilising relations and advancing dialogue between long-standing adversaries.
