Pakistan is reportedly preparing to host a second round of talks between the United States and Iran next week aimed at reducing ongoing tensions, according to government sources.
Officials say both sides may move closer to a basic agreement before the planned visit of former US President Donald Trump to China on May 14–15.
Reports suggest that around 80 to 85 percent of the issues between the two countries have already been resolved.
However, the nuclear issue remains the main point of disagreement and is still blocking a final deal.
Discussions are also focusing on the Strait of Hormuz, sanctions relief, and the possible release of frozen assets.
Although no final decision has been made, diplomatic signals indicate cautious optimism about progress toward a ceasefire framework.
Officials believe that if talks continue smoothly, a preliminary understanding could be reached before the upcoming diplomatic timeline ends.
Pakistan’s role as a host is seen as important in creating a neutral space for dialogue between the two sides.
Sources say that around 80 to 85 percent of technical and political differences have already been narrowed through earlier rounds of communication.
The remaining issues are considered sensitive, especially those linked to nuclear concerns and long-term security guarantees for both countries.
If progress continues, diplomats believe the talks could lead to a temporary ceasefire framework and gradual easing of restrictions.
However, officials stress that the situation is still uncertain and depends on the willingness of both sides to compromise in future meetings.
