Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif will visit Iran and Turkiye from July 3rd to 5th, confirmed by the Foreign Office. The trip is primarily to express condolences following the death of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who died in February due to alleged US-Israeli strikes. PM Shehbaz will convey the sympathies of the Pakistani government and its people to Iranian leadership and the families affected by the loss. He will be accompanied by Deputy PM Ishaq Dar, cabinet members, and senior officials. Following the visit to Iran, the Prime Minister will proceed to Turkiye, details of which were not specified in the statement. This visit underscores Pakistan's close relationship with both Iran and Turkiye during a time of mourning for Iran.
