00:05:06Now we have been joined by MRE Dinner
00:05:08a journalist and foreign policy expert from Istanbul discuss the regional
00:05:12tensions and efforts for de-escalation. Welcome to Pakistan TV miss
00:05:16and diving right in we see that once again the uh escalation
00:05:20has taken place between Iran and US as well and Pakistan's
00:05:24role has always been of mediator and Pakistan is making its
00:05:27foremost efforts in
00:05:29the in this same regard. your comments on that and on the recent
00:05:32escalation. the fighting
00:05:36between the His and Saudi Arabia
00:05:39has intense intensified. bringing
00:05:43renew tension to the region and you know
00:05:47we we need to look the brother picture I think and
00:05:51because Riad needs more than simply to impose
00:05:55a cost a cost on
00:05:58the cs it need to be establish and
00:06:02an agreement that prevents future attacks
00:06:06also if more targets are being struck
00:06:10in Yemen while attacks on. these cities
00:06:13continue uh then the military
00:06:16response has yet to deliver a political
00:06:20outc for me
00:06:23and remember that the planned meeting between Iran
00:06:27and the gulf states in Oman and it was
00:06:30postent and yesterday and that is where
00:06:34we should begin - and we we we
00:06:38combined all the events to this meeting I
00:06:42think. and this is not to mean
00:06:45diplomacy has completely collapsed, but it
00:06:48clearly demonstrates how
00:06:51deep
00:06:53the the mistrust between the parties runs and
00:06:56so the gulf states one to the strite
00:07:00of Urmus to remain open without
00:07:03politicial political conditions and
00:07:07Iran however sees Hurmus as
00:07:11more than a militar. passage and for Tahran
00:07:15the street is an important b to in the
00:07:18negations for sections and security
00:07:22guarantees and the feature the regional conflict
00:07:25and I don't believe Iran's realistic objective is
00:07:29to close hermus completely for an extended
00:07:33period and suggests decisions
00:07:37would also seriously damage to Iran economy and instead
00:07:41Tahran is seeking. and seeking
00:07:44political and conventions by slowing
00:07:47maritime traffic, increasing and insources and shipping
00:07:51cost and putting putting
00:07:55upward pressure on oil
00:07:58prise. moving on, the
00:08:02UN security council is said to me today after Yamenhooti's last week
00:08:06seized control the country's red sea coast and the balbel mandab
00:08:09straight. France, which holds the Presidency the security
00:08:13council this month requested the meeting to be held at in New
00:08:17York. Babel Mandab is vital shipping corridor linking Europe
00:08:21and Asia while the Red Sea that has become vital as
00:08:25the wider US addon war chokes the straight of
00:08:27farmus.
00:08:31US President Donald Trump has said Iran wants to reach an
00:08:35agreement with Washington quickly while Tehran said
00:08:38it is currently not seeking negotiations with the US. In opposed to
00:08:42social Donald Trump said Iran wants to make deal and that
00:08:46he would decide whether Washington would engage with Tehran.
00:08:50Iranian officials however told tasnim news that Tehran
00:08:54currently does not seek negotiations with the US. The
00:08:57contrasting positions calmas tensions remain high over the conflict and the
00:09:01straight of Hermus, vital route for global energy supplies and
00:09:05commercial
00:09:06shipping.
00:09:10Earlier Sayid Faisal Ali shah. political analyst spoke to Pakistan
00:09:14TV from Washington DC to discuss the US president Donald Trump's
00:09:17claim that Iran wants a deal with Washington while Tehran
00:09:21denies seeking negotiations with the US
00:09:24out that is also a complex
00:09:27thing when US
00:09:31energy secretary Scott Becent
00:09:34is also been criticized by US media
00:09:38because in all this period of time the
00:09:42biggest. thing that we all never seen in
00:09:46the name of diplomacy that is US department of state, the face of us diplomacy, that
00:09:49is nowhere anywhere, you might have never seen any
00:09:53statement by us department of state, that is the face of us diplomacy,
00:09:57nothing comes from there, all the other things they
00:10:00the advisers are doing that from
00:10:04tops are doing that, but that is something not considered as diplomacy,
00:10:08so when from us side it's nothing from
00:10:12serious diplomatic channel then Iranian side will never take it
00:10:16serious and we are not like observing
00:10:20anything diplomatic or diplomatic room in this type of
00:10:24limbo it's limboos. situation and we did seen like present Donald
00:10:27Trump University v and his son they
00:10:31went to Russia for some dialogues and they've been
00:10:35criticized by US media like what
00:10:38profiles they are carrying they are not diplomats they don't have any the
00:10:42year so if those people are still the US priority to engage with
00:10:46Iran then Iranians will never take it as any
00:10:50serious position of United States to consider it so
00:10:54with these uh type of like with this limbo situation at least we must
00:10:57say we are not observing anything soon from the US
00:11:01side that there is are for diplomacy. indeed
00:11:05just today US sentcom rejected Iraniann claims
00:11:09of projectile
00:11:11hit a vessel while passing through state of herms so one
00:11:15thing that is the peace at least not peace like there
00:11:19must be no more attacks in the harmus there must
00:11:22be at least just building mas both
00:11:26sides, we are not witnessing anything on both sides, both
00:11:30sides have doubts on each other,
00:11:34and from the previous Iranian experience with the US,
00:11:38almost three times, they've been born the middle of diplomacy, so they are
00:11:42not observing anything like diplomatic roam or
00:11:46diplomacy, they are not getting any chance, i think
00:11:49so, iran
00:11:53security chief has rejected any talks with the US until Tehran's
00:11:56conditions are met a post on x secretary of Iran supreme
00:12:00National Security Council Mohen Rizay said that don't get destructed by
00:12:04the US president's mixed signals from new negotiations
00:12:08to we are ready to talk he said that the stakes around oil and the
00:12:12states have changed and damage control would not stop what's
00:12:16coming.
