In a significant diplomatic statement on April 13, 2026, the Iranian Ambassador to Pakistan, Reza Amiri Moghadam, characterized the recent Islamabad Talks not merely as a single event, but as a continuous "process" aimed at regional stability. The Ambassador emphasized that these discussions have successfully laid the foundation for a sustainable framework intended to secure the interests of all involved parties, provided that mutual trust and political will are further strengthened.

Pakistan’s Role as a Mediator and Facilitator

Ambassador Moghadam expressed profound gratitude to the "friendly and brotherly" nation of Pakistan for its role in hosting the negotiations. He specifically extended his thanks to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir for their strategic initiative and the exercise of "good office" to bring the parties together.

The envoy highlighted the professional management of the event, noting that the talks were conducted in a dignified atmosphere. He credited the collaborative efforts of Pakistan’s government,

army, police, and security forces for maintaining a secure and orderly environment that provided equal logistical opportunities for all negotiators.

Securing Iran’s National Interests

Regarding the Iranian delegation's performance, the Ambassador noted that the high-ranking negotiating team operated with "dignity, self-confidence, and faith." He asserted that the team remained focused on the concerns of the Iranian public, ensuring that the talks progressed in a manner that secured the national interests and legitimate rights of the people.

As the Islamabad Talks transition from a preliminary meeting into a formal diplomatic process, the focus remains on whether the involved nations can build upon this "goodwill initiative" to achieve long-term regional peace.
