Nearly four weeks into the Iran-US war, Pakistan seems to be emerging as a potential mediator to oversee negotiations between the two sides.
Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said that the country was 'ready' to be the host to facilitate talks, which US President Donald Trump later shared on his account.
The US has reportedly submitted a 15-point peace plan to Iran by intermediaries from Pakistan, with some hope for a potential truce emerging over the past few days.
Trump recently claimed that Iran was looking to finalise a deal, and his top officials Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff had spoken to an Iranian leader.
However, focus shifted to Pakistan as some publications reported that Islamabad might become the venue for talks between Iran and the US.
Pakistan is making a push to become the 'lead mediator' to broker an end to the war, and Trump spoke with its army chief Asim Munir about the conflict on Sunday.
