Key points
- Analysts say China could emerge as a key guarantor in any future Iran-US diplomatic track, with Pakistan helping explore the framework.
- The discussion reflects Islamabad’s growing role in regional mediation as the Middle East crisis deepens.
China is increasingly being viewed as a possible guarantor in any future understanding between Iran and the United States, as Pakistan continues diplomatic outreach aimed at creating space for negotiations.
Analysts cited in the report said Tehran is seeking firm guarantees before entering any serious process with Washington. In that context, Ishaq Dar’s engagement with Beijing was described as potentially important for testing whether China could support a framework acceptable to all sides.
Commentators said Pakistan’s position has become more significant because it is helping relay messages and facilitate contacts as the wider regional crisis continues. They argued that Beijing’s weight could make it an influential player in securing a ceasefire or supporting the credibility of any future arrangement.
The discussion comes amid the continuing economic and strategic fallout from the broader Middle East war, including disruptions tied to the Strait of Hormuz and growing concern across the region over security, energy flows and civilian harm.
