Following the talks, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif wrote on X that he was pleased to meet Foreign Minister Araghchi and his delegation in Islamabad. He described the exchange as warm and cordial, noting that both sides discussed the current regional dynamics and explored ways to further strengthen Pakistan-Iran bilateral relations and cooperation in areas of mutual interest.
