Pakistan’s Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi arrived in Tehran over the weekend carrying what Iranian media described as a “special letter” for Iran’s supreme leadership. The visit comes as diplomatic efforts continue to seek an end to the 100-day conflict involving Iran, the United States and Israel.
Naqvi met Iranian Interior Minister Eskandar Momeni to discuss regional developments, security concerns and bilateral cooperation. Pakistani officials have not publicly detailed the contents of the letter, but reports suggest it was sent on behalf of Pakistan’s civilian and military leadership.
The visit coincides with heightened tensions in the Gulf. The US military says it recently intercepted Iranian drones and ballistic missiles near the Strait of Hormuz and later struck Iranian radar facilities along the coast. Gulf states, including Bahrain and Kuwait, condemned the escalation and warned that further attacks could threaten regional stability.
Despite continued military exchanges, negotiations to end the conflict remain under way. US President Donald Trump has expressed hope for a diplomatic breakthrough, while Iranian officials say talks remain deadlocked. Key disputes include sanctions relief, frozen Iranian assets, maritime security and broader regional ceasefire arrangements.
Iran’s control over the Strait of Hormuz remains a major concern because the waterway carries a significant share of global oil trade. Any prolonged disruption could affect energy markets worldwide.
