Pakistan prepared to host U.S.-Iran talks in ‘coming days’ as Trump weighs deploying ground troops
Pakistani Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar said Sunday that both the U.S. and Iran have expressed confidence in Pakistan to hold talks in the coming days aimed at ending the U.S.-Israeli war in Iran.In a statement following a meeting with the foreign ministers of Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Egypt, Dar said Pakistan is engaging with the U.S. to find an end to the conflict, and that “both Iran and the US have expressed their confidence in Pakistan to facilitate the talks.
“Pakistan will be honoured to host and facilitate meaningful talks between the two sides in coming days, for a comprehensive and lasting settlement of the ongoing conflict,” Dar said.
It is unclear whether the U.S. and Iran had agreed to any formal talks with Pakistan. The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment from CNBC.
Pakistan prepared to host U.S.-Iran talks in 'coming days' as Trump weighs deploying ground troops
Foreign ministers of Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Egypt all arrived in Islamabad to discuss the evolving regional situation in the Middle East.
Up until now the man who avoided the draft by having a friendly doctor say he had bone spurs has not shown the stomach for sending ground troops in to harm's way on a large scale. He certainly didn't have the stomach for it himself. Hence the draft dodging. Neither has anyone in his family. Having no history of sacrifice for the nation in the fam explains a lot. However, he has shown an affinity for dropping bombs on people's heads. Sometimes the wrong heads.
A reluctance to send in foot soldiers is actually commendable. Especially with Pete Hegseth, the former minor TV personality, chomping at the bit for more blood. What isn't is being in a position to consider doing it due to under estimating the enemy.
Strategery.........thanks George..............has not proven to be a strength (to be kind) of the regime. As it turns out Don is more of a bomb first, try to figure out what to do next kind of prez. At this point I'm not sure what he plans to do. I don't think he does either.
