Islamabad: Amid increasing tension in West Asia, Iranian President Ibrahim Raisi is scheduled to visit Pakistan on April 22. According to reports in Pakistani media, Raisi will hold meetings with Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, President Asif Ali Zardari and military leadership. According to the news of ‘Geo News’, this visit of Raisi (63) will take place at a time when Tehran has fired more than 300 drones and missiles on Israel in response to the alleged Israeli air attack on its Consulate in Damascus, Syria just a few days ago. . Several people, including two senior commanders of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps, were killed in an attack on Iran’s consulate in Damascus.
relationships will become stronger
This visit of the President of Iran is also important because it will strengthen the efforts to increase cooperation between Pakistan and Iran. Relations between the two countries had soured earlier this year when Pakistan launched precision strikes using drones and rockets to target terrorists inside Iranian territory in response to Iran’s cross-border attacks in January. . Regarding the attack, Iran’s government media had said that two bases of Sunni Baloch terrorist group ‘Jaish al-Adl’ in Pakistan’s Balochistan province were targeted with missiles and drones. Jaish al-Adl is a Baloch Sunni terrorist group created in 2012 that is mostly active in Pakistan.
relations became normal
According to the news of ‘Geo News’, Pakistan had recalled its ambassador from Iran in protest against the violation of Pakistan’s sovereignty by Iran and said that the ambassadors of Iran who have gone on a visit to their country should not return to Pakistan. . However, diplomatic relations between the two countries were soon restored and the ambassadors of both countries returned to their respective countries of posting.
Pakistan-Iran share economic interests
According to the news, sources said that the agenda of President Raisi’s visit includes bilateral relations, security cooperation, a gas pipeline and a possible free trade agreement (FTA). The Iranian President’s visit is also important because the two countries share major economic interests, especially the Pakistan-Iran gas pipeline, the report said. (Language)
