Field Marshal Munir and the accompanying delegation was received by Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi upon their arrival on Wednesday afternoon.
Munir is said to be the main pillar of Pakistan's diplomatic initiative in hosting the Iran-US negotiations and a ceasefire proposal that was put forth and mediated by Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif. He had been in constant contact with both American and Iranian officials, gaining trust of the two sides.
During his weekly press briefing earlier in the day, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei also referred to the Pakistani delegation, saying the officials from the two countries would be discussing multiple messages from the US exchanged through the Pakistani intermediary, following the Islamabad talks.
In an attempt to ease hostilities, a two-week ceasefire was brokered on April 8, allowing for mediated negotiations in Islamabad. Iran presented a ten-point plan during those discussions, which called for the withdrawal of US troops, the lifting of sanctions, and sovereignty over the key Strait of Hormuz.
Despite engaging in 21 hours of intense talks with US negotiators in Pakistan, the Iranian delegation returned to Tehran without reaching an agreement, citing a lack of trust and excessive demands by the US.
