A senior Iranian delegation has arrived in Islamabad ahead of planned talks with the United States, Iranian state television reported Friday.
The delegation is led by Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf and includes Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, along with security and economic officials.
According to the report, Iran reiterated that any negotiations with Washington will only proceed if its conditions are met.
Ghalibaf said earlier that a ceasefire in Lebanon and the release of frozen Iranian assets are key preconditions “before the start of negotiations.”
The anticipated talks are expected to involve a US delegation led by Vice President JD Vance, as diplomatic efforts intensify to stabilize the region and explore a path toward de-escalation.
