00:00It is also being reported that the president of Iran, Masoud Pazeshkian, has been speaking to the Pakistani Prime Minister,
00:08Shephas Sharif.
00:10I'm just wondering whether Islamabad is perceived by both sides as being a neutral party here.
00:19I believe so, because Islamabad has good relations with Tehran, strong relations with Saudi Arabia, and open channels with the
00:30United States.
00:31So I think Pakistan can be an ideal facilitator at this stage, before maybe we will be talking later about
00:41official engagements or a mediator player.
00:46But certainly its relations with the main, I would say, parties player here, I believe in Tehran Islamabad to be
00:57a low-key profile facilitator, yet I would say trusted and having good contacts with all the parties.
