Iran-Pakistan Relation Why is Iran’s President Ebrahim Raisi visiting Pakistan dgtl

The proof that Pakistan’s warning was not hollow, came within two days. Pakistan retaliated against Iran. The diplomatic relations between Iran and Pakistan have been strained in the atmosphere of retaliatory attacks. Iran did not see Pakistan’s attack well.

Since then there has been tension between the two countries. In this climate, the sudden visit of the President of Iran to Pakistan is very significant. Why did he go to Pakistan? Tehran argues that this visit is aimed at strengthening the broken relationship between the two countries.

Ibrahim set foot on the soil of Islamabad on Monday. Not only he is not alone, his wife is with the president of Iran on this trip. Apart from this, Ibrahim’s traveling companions are several members of his country’s cabinet. A few businessmen are also with Ibrahim.

Ibrahim had a meeting with Pakistan President Shahbaz Sharif on Monday. The economy, border, energy issues of the two neighboring countries were discussed between the two leaders. The government of Pakistan has also expressed interest in strengthening bilateral relations with Iran.

Relations between Pakistan and Iran have always been sour. There is always tension on the border between the two countries. Among them, the heads of the two countries have been seen meeting several times. Sometimes the situation improved, sometimes it worsened.

Is Ibrahim’s visit to Pakistan only for improving bilateral relations and for commercial reasons? Or is there any other invention behind it? Speculation has begun. Besides, Kashmir is also at the center of discussion.

Many people think that Tehran is adopting a new strategy to increase the intensity of its attack on Israel. They are also believed to be able to attack Israel with nuclear bombs. Therefore, Iran is seeking the help of neighboring countries to increase its nuclear energy reserves.

Iran-Israel has not yet gone to war like that. But both countries attacked each other. A few days ago, Iran launched more than 350 drones and missiles towards Israel. However, Israel’s defense system destroys all those missiles in the air before they hit the ground.

As soon as the news of the Iranian attack came to light, American President Joe Biden called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Israel is also assured of military assistance from its friend America.

Along with Israel, Pakistan is also a friend of America. The Biden government also supplies weapons to Pakistan. Islamabad knows very well that America is against Iran. In this situation, Pakistan is a bit uncomfortable with the visit of the Iranian president.

Another issue has raised curiosity in world diplomatic circles. On Monday, Ibrahim and Shahbaz held a joint press conference after the meeting. A picture of a disagreement between the two heads of state at that conference has come to light. And behind this disagreement is the Kashmir issue.

In Monday’s press conference, Pakistan Prime Minister Shahbaz mentioned the situation in Gaza and also expressed concern about Kashmir. Ibrahim was also called upon to state Iran’s position on the same issue. But the Iranian president remained silent on the Kashmir issue. It goes without saying that his silence was not taken well by the Shahbaz government. So now, everyone will be watching the direction of Pakistan and Iran’s relationship.
