Iran’s state broadcaster IRIB writes on Telegram that Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi does not plan to meet with the United States in Pakistan.
Islamabad can act as a “bridge” to “convey Iran’s consideration for ending the conflict”, it says.
Meanwhile, the White House said earlier that it was sending envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to Islamabad because the Iranians wanted to talk “in person”.
Araghchi arrived in Pakistan on Friday evening – the Iranian embassy in Pakistan says he plans to “review bilateral matters” between Iran and Pakistan.
Citing a senior Pakistani government official, ABC News is reporting that US and Iranian delegations will have separate meetings with Pakistani officials this weekend.
It adds that if they go well, the US and Iranian officials will then meet directly on Sunday.
