Pakistan PM Imran to embark on second official visit to Iran

Islamabad, Oct 12, IRNA -- Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan as part of his initiative to promote peace and security in the region will head to Iran on Sunday for an official visit, a foreign ministry statement said.

It said during the visit, the Prime Minister will have meetings with Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei and President Hassan Rouhani.

“Besides issues relating to peace and security in the Persian Gulf, bilateral matters and important regional developments will be discussed,” it said.

It added this will be the Prime Minister’s second visit to Iran this year. The Prime Minister also had a bilateral meeting with the President of Iran on the sidelines of the 74th UNGA Session in New York in September 2019.
