Pakistan's Role as a Mediator Between the U.S. and Iran
March 25, 2026
Pakistan is playing the role of a mediator between the U.S. and Iran, primarily through the figure of General Asim Munir. Munir has gained significant power since taking command of the army in 2022. With close ties to former President Trump, he has participated in numerous negotiations in the region. Pakistan is seen as a reliable mediator due to its relationship with Washington and trust from Iran. However, the country also has its own interests, such as preventing fuel supply crises.
