Pakistan PM embarks on Gulf-Turkiye tour in bid to end war on Iran

Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif was set to embark on a four-day diplomatic tour to Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Turkiye. The purpose of the tour bid to moderate the second round of peace talks between the United States and Iran appears to gather momentum.

On Tuesday, Pakistan’s President Asif Ali Zardari had said in a statement that Sharif had briefed him on his drive to discuss the issue with his fellow mediators and to secure further negotiations. While the Islamabad talks ended without an agreement to end the conflict, US President Donald Trump said Tuesday that negotiations could resume this week in Islamabad.
