Pakistan, Turkey and Egypt Reportedly Engaged With Back-Channel Diplomacy Meanwhile Iran Rubbishes Trump’s Peace Talks
According to Dawn News, Pakistan, Turkey and Egypt are reportedly holding back-channel talks in order to bridge back the relations between the US and Iran. Pakistan is confident in its stance to play as a diplomatic mediator and identifies itself as a net regional stabilizer.
The active back-channel diplomacy involved US Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff and Iran Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, Pakistan, Turkiye and Egypt were engaged in “quiet communication” to restore peace. The ”strategic synergy” between Ankara, Cairo and Islamabad aims at dominating the perception that diplomacy and peace is first priority.
At the same time, Iran has called Trump’s successful peace talks claims as “fake news”. The term is often humorously connected with Donald Trump and this denial from Iran may be strategic after all to force more concessions.
