ISLAMABAD – Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Senator Ishaq Dar held a telephonic conversation with Iranian FM Abbas Araghchi. DPM Dar expressed concern over the evolving regional situation, and underscored that dialogue and diplomacy remain the only viable way forward, Foreign Office said in a press release on Thursday. The other US source said Trump has not yet made a final decision on a course of action including whether to take the military path. Trump urged Iran on Wednesday to come to the table and make a deal on nuclear weapons, warning that any future US attack would be more severe than a June bombing campaign against three nuclear sites. He described the ships in the region as an “armada” sailing to Iran.
