Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Saturday shared his hopes that ongoing talks between the United States and Iran in Islamabad will lead to a durable peace in the West Asia region.
The discussions, dubbed the Islamabad Talks, hosted a US delegation led by Vice President JD Vance. This was accompanied by special envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner.
The dialogue, however, takes place against a backdrop of Israeli airstrikes on Lebanon, which have disrupted the ceasefire previously brokered between the US and Iran.
