Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian landed at Islamabad International Airport on [arrival date], commencing an official visit to Pakistan at the invitation of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif.
The visit comes as both nations seek to bolster cooperation across areas including trade, energy, and regional security. At the airport, President Pezeshkian was received by Pakistan's Planning Minister Ahsan Iqbal and other senior officials.
