Pakistan-Iran in diplomatic talks to resolve gas pipeline dispute

Pakistan is in diplomatic contact with Iran to address the ongoing dispute over the Pak-Iran gas pipeline, according to government sources.

The discussions come after Iran issued a notice indicating its intention to take the matter to an arbitration court next month.

Government insiders revealed that Pakistan is exploring a negotiated solution to the issue through diplomatic channels.

They also emphasized that while Pakistan has a strong case in the potential arbitration, the contents of the notice remain confidential due to treaty obligations.

Officials cautioned against media speculation regarding the potential penalty, warning that such reports could be used against Pakistan.

They further noted that Iran has not mentioned any specific financial demands, urging the media to avoid unfounded conjecture that could harm national interests.

Diplomatic efforts to resolve the matter are ongoing.
