In a post on X on Saturday after concluding his day-long trip to the Pakistani capital, Araghchi said the proposal was shared as part of efforts to establish a lasting end to the conflict.

He said Iran places “very much” value on Pakistan’s mediation efforts and its “brotherly” role in trying to restore regional stability.

“Shared Iran’s position concerning workable framework to permanently end the war on Iran. Have yet to see if the US is truly serious about diplomacy,” he wrote.

After talks with senior Pakistani officials on regional security and ceasefire efforts with the United States, Araghchi left Islamabad and later arrived in Muscat on Saturday evening.

During his visit — the first stop of a three-nation tour— he met Pakistan’s army chief Field Marshal Asim Munir, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar.

Araghchi also thanked Pakistan for its role in facilitating the April 8 ceasefire between Tehran and Washington, and for continued mediation efforts since then, outlining Iran’s “principled positions” on maintaining the truce and ending what he called the imposed war.

Prime Minister Sharif described his meeting with Araghchi as a “warm, cordial exchange of views” on regional developments, adding that both sides also discussed strengthening Pakistan-Iran relations.
