Iran’s Interior Minister Eskandar Momeni arrived in Islamabad on an official visit, meeting Pakistani officials including Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, and Chief of Defence Forces Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir.

His visit comes amid ongoing diplomatic efforts to revive the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the US and Iran, which collapsed after a ceasefire was declared over.The MoU aimed to end hostilities and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a critical maritime route for oil and gas.However, recent attacks by both Washington and Tehran have disrupted the region, with Iran blaming the US for breaching the agreement.Pakistan, acting as a mediator, continues to push for a resolution despite the escalating conflict.

The situation highlights the complex geopolitical dynamics in the Middle East, where economic and strategic interests intersect with regional security concerns.
