According to the Foreign Office Pakistan, the discussion focused on the evolving regional situation and Islamabad’s ongoing diplomatic efforts aimed at de-escalation and peacebuilding.

The conflict has remained deadlocked since a ceasefire took effect on April 8, with key disagreements centred on Iran’s blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. The move has significantly disrupted global supplies of oil, gas, and fertiliser, while Washington has responded with countermeasures targeting Iranian ports.

During the call, Araghchi acknowledged Pakistan’s constructive and sincere mediation efforts, particularly as Islamabad continues to facilitate dialogue between the two sides. Dar reaffirmed Pakistan’s commitment to promoting engagement, stressing that sustainable peace can only be achieved through negotiations rather than confrontation.

Separately, Iran’s foreign ministry said Tehran had submitted a 14-point proposal aimed at ending the conflict. The plan has reportedly received a response from Washington through Pakistani mediators and is currently under review.

Pakistan has emerged as a key diplomatic channel between the US and Iran, with high-level talks previously held in Islamabad. However, a second round of negotiations has yet to take place as discussions remain stalled.
