Asim Munir Iran Visit: A total four-member delegation of Pakistan led by Field Marshal Asim Munir, chief of the three armies of Pakistan, had gone to Iran’s capital Tehran on Wednesday evening. Apart from Asim Munir, Pakistani Home Minister Mohsin Naqvi, Pakistan Army DG (Military Operations) Major General Kashif Abdullah and Asim Munir’s private secretary Major General Syed Jawad Tariq were included in this.
According to sources, DG (Military Operations) Major General Kashif Abdullah was included in the Pakistani delegation that went to Tehran for talks because Pakistan had last Thursday deployed a squadron of its F-16 fighter jets at Saudi Arabia’s Abdul Aziz airbase, 200 km from the Iranian border in Saudi Arabia.
It has the 12th Armored Brigade of the 25th Mechanized Division and the 31st Mechanized Brigade of Tynite near the Yemen border. In such a situation, DG (Military Operations) Major General Kashif Abdullah gave a briefing to the Iranian delegation including Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi that this deployment is not against Iran.
Was Asim Munir in constant touch with Steve Witkoff?
Regarding Pakistani Field Marshal Asim Munir, White House sources had informed the American media that Asim Munir was in constant touch with Steve Witkoff after the talks failed in Islamabad on Sunday. Was talking.
Asim Munir, based on the conversation with US Special Envoy to Central Asia Steve Witkoff, informed Abbas Araghchi, Kazem Gharibabadi, Ismail Baghi about America’s new concessions in a meeting with Iranian leaders in Tehran.
However, this is not a new case of Pakistan being a mediator in the relations between America and Iran. Since 1979, when diplomatic relations between America and Iran ended, Pakistan has been conducting back channel talks with America for Iran.
Since 1979, there has been an Iranian Interest Section in the Pakistani Embassy in Washington, whose director is Iranian diplomat Mehdi Atefat. Mehdi Atefat sits in an office in the Pakistan Embassy in Washington. Apart from this, Pakistan has also provided all the concessions given to a diplomat to the Director of Iranian Interest Section.

Trump and Witkoff’s Pakistani connection
Similarly, Trump’s special envoy to Central Asia and his friend Steve Witkoff also has a special connection with Pakistan and is playing a key role in the talks with Iran. Just a few months ago, Steve Witkoff had got the deal for the reconstruction of the Roosevelt Hotel of the Pakistani government located in Manhattan, New York, America. Under this, this hotel of Pakistani government will be rebuilt by the governments of America and Pakistan together. After the deal between Trump and Witkoff in February, there were allegations that under this deal, Trump and Witkoff would provide benefits to real estate businessmen in reconstruction.
Similarly, last year, Pakistan had signed an agreement with a cryptocurrency venture named World Liberty Financial in the presence of Shehbaz Sharif and Asim Munir, whose founder Steve Witkoff and Trump’s son-in-law Jarrad Kushner along with Trump’s two sons Eric Trump, Donald Trump Jr. and the Trump family own a total of 60% shares.
Trump’s son-in-law Gerard Kushner is also included in the team for talks with Iran. In such a situation, just a few days ago the American newspaper New York Times had claimed that a major reason for Pakistan getting the role of mediator from America in the Iran-America war is the Roosevelt Hotel deal and the crypto deal. In this, because of pleasing Trump, America has got the chair of mediator.
Pakistan Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif had reached Saudi
Pakistan Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif also reached Saudi Arabia yesterday. Shahbaz Sharif met Saudi Prime Minister Mohammed bin Salman in Jeddah. This was the first meeting after Pakistan deployed its fighter aircraft and army in Saudi Arabia.
Earlier on March 6, amidst the war, Pakistan’s Field Marshal Asim Munir had gone to Saudi and met Saudi Defense Minister Khalid bin Salman. It was promised that Pakistan would deploy its military power to protect Saudi, but Pakistan did not keep this promise.
After this, on further pressure by Saudi Arabia, on March 12, Pakistani Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif, Asim Munir and Ishaq Dar go to Saudi Arabia and again promise Saudi Arabia that its army will soon deploy its fighter jets and anti-drone systems in Saudi Arabia and will also send soldiers.

Although Pakistan does not even fulfill this promise, the turning point in this matter is considered to be the demand of 3.5 billion dollar installment of the loan given by the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to Pakistan, after which Pakistan first asked for financial help from Saudi and then from Thursday 9 April, it started deploying its army, fighter jets, anti-drone system and Saab-2000 Airborne Early Warning and Control System (AWCS) in Saudi Arabia. Did it.
After which ABP News was the first to reveal on April 13 that the Saudi Arabian government has approved giving $ 3 billion in aid to Pakistan in exchange for military deployment and that is why Shahbaz Sharif reached Saudi Arabia yesterday to thank Saudi Arabia and promise the defense of Saudi after the military deployment. Where in the talks between Iran and America, he had also demanded Saudi Arabia to talk to America to reach an agreement with Iran.
Iran is assessing Asim Munir’s words
Yesterday in Tehran, after Asim Munir gave information about America’s conditions and concessions to the leaders of the Iranian Foreign Ministry, the Iranian government informed its official news agency Tasnim News Agency that Iran is currently assessing the things told by Asim Munir and only after that it will be decided whether the Iranian delegation will go for the second round of talks with America or not.
The reason behind this is that after Asim Munir’s conversation and information about America’s offer to Iran, Iran said that there are differences between the two countries on the issue of uranium. While America wants Iran not to enrich uranium for 20 years, Iran is ready for only 5 years considering its civilian needs.
