ISLAMABAD: The Iranian president’s political adviser said on Wednesday that Dr Masoud Pezeshkian was due to visit Pakistan on August 2 (Saturday) for a two-day visit, Iran’s IRNA news agency reported.
Pezeshkian will be the second Iranian president to visit Pakistan in as many years. The visit was initially planned for the last week of July.
In April 2024, Ebrahim Raisi undertook a three-day official visit to Pakistan. During the trip — which took place a month before Raisi’s death in a helicopter crash — the foreign dignitary also visited Lahore and Karachi. In a post on X, Political Adviser to the Iranian President Mehdi Sanai said: “Dr Pezeshkian will travel to Pakistan on Saturday evening, August 11, at the invitation of [Prime Minister] Shehbaz Sharif.”
He said official meetings and discussions with cultural and commercial elites were on the agenda.
