Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif arrived in Lachin, Azerbaijan on Tuesday after concluding his official visit to Iran, where he met the country\u2019s top leadership and discussed bilateral ties and regional security.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upon arrival in Azerbaijan, the prime minister was received by Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Jeyhun Bayramov. PM Sharif is scheduled to participate in a key trilateral summit involving leaders from Pakistan, Turkey, and Azerbaijan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The high-level meeting is expected to focus on economic cooperation, regional connectivity, and joint diplomatic efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PM Sharif also expected to hold a significant bilateral meeting with Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev. According to officials, he will express Pakistan\u2019s gratitude for Azerbaijan\u2019s unwavering support during periods of heightened tensions with India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Visit to Iran<\/strong>

Earlier, PM Sharif visited Tehran where he held meetings with Iranian President Masoud Peshmerga and Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

During a joint press conference, PM Sharif reiterated Pakistan\u2019s willingness to engage in dialogue with India for regional peace. However, he warned that any provocative actions from New Delhi would be met with a \u201cbefitting response\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe need of the hour is for the international community to raise its voice for the people of Gaza,\u201d the Prime Minister said, affirming Pakistan\u2019s support for Iran\u2019s right to pursue a peaceful nuclear program for civilian purposes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
