Field Marshal Asim Munir and Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi met President Masoud Pezeshkian on Tuesday morning to discuss preventing escalation, reopening the Strait of Hormuz and "the steps needed by both sides" to restore the June Islamabad memorandum; Naqvi called the talks "very positive and productive." Iran's Tasnim agency said Pakistan would relay Tehran's conditions to Washington.
Why it matters
Pakistan, which brokered the June memorandum, is the channel Iran is using to state its terms, chiefly a U.S. return to the memorandum's Hormuz provisions.
