Amid ongoing efforts to land a deal between the United States and Iran, an Iranian MP on Sunday cast serious doubts on Pakistan’s ability to act as a mediator, claiming Islamabad \u201calways takes US President Donald Trump\u2019s interests into account and does not speak against the Americans\u2019 wishes.\u201dIn a post on X, Dashtestan representative and spokesperson for Iran\u2019s national security and foreign policy commission, Ebrahim Rezaei, said a mediator must be impartial and should not lean to one side.\u201cPakistan is a good friend and neighbour of ours, but it is not a suitable mediator for negotiations and lacks the necessary credibility. They always take Trump\u2019s interests into account and do not speak against the Americans\u2019 wishes. For example, they are unwilling to tell the world that America first accepted Pakistan\u2019s proposal but then went back on its word,\u201d Rezaei said.\u201cThey do not say that the Americans had commitments regarding Lebanon or blocked assets but failed to honour them. A mediator must be impartial, not always leaning to one side,\u201d he added.This comes as Iran’s foreign minister Abbas Araghchi made frequent visits to Islamabad to keep negotiations alive despite uncertainty. Araghchi met Pakistan Army chief Asim Munir to discuss the conflict and possible pathways forward.Iran\u2019s foreign minister had earlier met Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif and other senior officials before arriving from Oman, where he held talks with Sultan Haitham bin Tariq al-Said on Hormuz security and broader diplomacy.Reports suggest discussions went beyond the nuclear issue, covering a new legal framework for the strait, compensation, security guarantees, and lifting US maritime curbs.After Islamabad, Araghchi is on a visit to Moscow. Meanwhile, as momentum dips, US President Donald Trump said Iran can initiate contact if it wants negotiations, after Washington cancelled planned talks in Pakistan.<\/div>\n\n
