Pakistan’s Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi is expected to return to Tehran as Islamabad seeks to support Pakistan Iran-US talks, Al Arabiya reported on June 5.
The reported visit follows Naqvi’s meeting with Iran’s Interior Minister Eskandar Momeni in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan. The meeting took place on the sidelines of regional security talks.
Naqvi’s expected return signals Pakistan’s continued effort to keep the diplomatic channel between Tehran and Washington active.
Islamabad has worked as an intermediary during recent efforts to reduce tensions between Iran and the United States.
Iranian officials have taken a firm public line before any further negotiations. Iran’s Revolutionary Guards said on June 4 that lasting Middle East stability required Israel to withdraw from Lebanese territory and halt military operations.

Mohsen Rezaei, a senior adviser to Iran’s leadership, also said Tehran would not give a “green light” to talks until its demands had been met.
The negotiations have faced disputes over Iran’s nuclear program, sanctions relief, security guarantees and the Strait of Hormuz. Pakistan’s role includes relaying messages and helping narrow gaps between the two sides.
Naqvi made earlier visits to Tehran in May 2026 as part of the same diplomatic push. Those efforts followed heightened regional tensions and a fragile ceasefire linked to wider Middle East fighting.
