WASHINGTON: The second round of talks between the United States and Iran is expected to take place on Friday, with US President Donald Trump expressing optimism and forecasting potential “good news” from the negotiations.
In remarks to American media, Donald Trump said the United States is simultaneously advancing diplomatic efforts while keeping its military on high alert to respond to any possible developments.
He stated that the next phase of negotiations is expected to bring significant progress, which could serve as an important step toward easing tensions in the region.
Trump also suggested that recent developments include a temporary pause in potential military action against Iran, following requests and diplomatic engagement from Pakistan’s leadership.
According to his statement, Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir reportedly urged restraint and advised continued diplomatic engagement until mutually agreed proposals from Iran are presented.
He added that the ceasefire arrangement would remain in place until the completion of the negotiation process and clear progress is seen on Iranian proposals.
Analysts believe Pakistan’s diplomatic role has been significant in easing tensions, while the coming days may prove crucial for regional stability and peace efforts.
