Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian expressed the Islamic Republic’s readiness to mediate between Pakistan and India in pursuit of lasting peace during a telephone call with Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Saturday.

Pezeshkian emphasized that Iran’s principled foreign policy prioritizes de-escalation and the promotion of peace worldwide, particularly within the Islamic world.

"The Islamic Republic welcomes any measures and efforts towards establishing lasting peace between Pakistan and India, and it can play a mediating role to that aim," Pezeshkian stated, extending Eid al-Adha greetings to the Pakistani premier, underscoring the need for unity among Muslim nations.

During the conversation, Pezeshkian accepted Sharif’s invitation to visit Pakistan and noted that he had instructed his administration to identify avenues for enhancing bilateral ties between Tehran and Islamabad.

The call follows recent momentum in Iran-Pakistan relations, with Pezeshkian reaffirming Tehran's interest in deepening cooperation across various sectors.

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, in response, conveyed his Eid al-Adha greetings to the Iranian people and the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Sayyed Ali Khamenei.

Sharif recalled his recent visit to Tehran, describing his discussions with Iranian leadership as productive, particularly in the areas of defense, security, and economic cooperation. He expressed hope for the timely implementation of agreements signed between the two nations.

The Pakistani premier welcomed Iran’s offer to mediate between Islamabad and New Delhi, and reiterated his government’s openness to dialogue with India to achieve regional peace. Sharif also suggested that an Iranian delegation visit Pakistan in preparation for President Pezeshkian’s future trip.

In May, Pakistan and India engaged in one of the most intense military escalations in years, involving fighter jets, missile exchanges, and drone strikes. The four-day conflict concluded with a ceasefire agreement but underscored the persistent volatility in relations between the two nuclear-armed neighbors.

Iran’s offer to mediate comes at a time when both Islamabad and New Delhi face mounting regional and international pressure to de-escalate and reengage diplomatically.

At the end of May, during Sharif's meeting with Sayyed Khamenei, the latter underscored Pakistan's significance in the Islamic world and stressed the need for “joint effective action” to stop the crimes committed by the Israeli regime in Gaza.

"While the warmongers in the world have many motives to create discord and war, the only thing that can ensure the security of the Islamic Ummah is unity among Islamic countries and promoting relations among these countries," he underscored.
