Pakistan announced on Friday it would issue visas on arrival for diplomats, journalists and international delegates travelling to Islamabad for Saturday's Iran–US talks.
The negotiations come after a two-week ceasefire between Tehran and Washington following weeks of escalating tensions with the chance now for peace dialogue facilitated through Pakistan's diplomatic channels.
