The phone call comes amidst Pakistan’s diplomatic efforts to end the regional war involving the United States, Israel and Iran.
In April, Pakistan hosted the high-stakes first round of US-Iran talks in Islamabad. Pakistan also helped broker the ceasefire to end the Iran war.
On Friday, the Wall Street Journal reported that Iran has signalled readiness to resume talks with the United States in Pakistan as early as next week under a revised proposal to revive stalled negotiations.
The Wall Street Journal report stated that Tehran has shown greater flexibility in its latest proposal, which seeks to restart diplomacy amid an ongoing standoff that has disrupted global energy flows and maritime trade in the Middle East.
Pakistan’s diplomatic efforts
The latest Iranian proposal has been conveyed through Pakistan, which is acting as a mediator between Washington and Tehran, according to reports.
Trump said talks were currently being conducted by phone after he called off a planned visit by US envoys to Pakistan.
“I have great respect for Pakistan and for the Field Marshal (Syed Asim Munir) and the Prime Minister (Shehbaz Sharif),” he said.
Pakistan has played a key role in facilitating dialogue between the US and Iran, including hosting the first high-level contact in decades last month in Islamabad.
However, efforts to convene a second round have faced delays, and officials acknowledge significant differences remain.
Pakistan’s role highlights its continued engagement in supporting diplomatic communication channels during the crisis.
The entire world has appreciated Pakistan’s role as peacemaker by making the very first appeal for a ceasefire, and hosting the Islamabad Talks between Iran and the US.
The exchange of proposals comes amid a lasting ceasefire following weeks of military escalation that began in late February despite threats, warnings and alerts.
