Pakistan Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi Arrives in Tehran for Unannounced Visit

Pakistan’s Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi arrived in Tehran for an unannounced visit to meet with Iranian officials, according to informed sources cited by IRNA, Iran’s official state news agency. No details have been released about the agenda or the specific Iranian officials involved.

Iran share a long border and maintain regular diplomatic contact on issues that include security, trade and regional stability. Interior ministers from both countries have previously met to discuss border management and counterterrorism cooperation, though such meetings are usually announced in advance.

The decision to keep this visit unannounced is unusual but not unprecedented when sensitive topics are under discussion. Neither government has issued an official statement about the purpose or expected outcomes of the meetings.

IRNA, citing informed sources, said the Pakistani minister had arrived and would hold talks during his stay in the Iranian capital. As of Saturday afternoon, no further information had been released by Pakistani authorities or the Iranian foreign ministry regarding the schedule or any agreements that might result from the discussions.
