The IRNA news agency, citing the foreign ministry, reported that Araghchi “is scheduled to visit Pakistan again after completing his trip to Oman and before travelling to Russia”.
Part of his delegation had returned to Tehran, it added, “to consult and obtain the necessary instructions on issues related to ending the war, and is scheduled to rejoin Araghchi in Islamabad on Sunday night”.

He earlier said on X that Iran shared a “workable framework” with Pakistan aimed at permanently ending the US war.
In a post on X following a visit to Pakistan, Araghchi said discussions focused on efforts to restore stability in the region and end the conflict.
“We shared Iran’s position concerning a workable framework to permanently end the war on Iran,” he said, without providing further details.
Araghchi described the trip as “very fruitful”, praising Pakistan’s role in facilitating dialogue and its “brotherly efforts” to help bring peace back to the region.
He also expressed scepticism about Washington’s intentions.
“Have yet to see if the US is truly serious about diplomacy,” he said.
Very fruitful visit to Pakistan, whose good offices and brotherly efforts to bring back peace to our region we very much value.
Shared Iran’s position concerning workable framework to permanently end the war on Iran. Have yet to see if the U.S. is truly serious about diplomacy.

Pakistan has been acting as an intermediary between Tehran and Washington amid ongoing tensions following recent military escalation.
Araghchi arrived in Pakistan late on Friday and met Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif in Islamabad on Saturday, amid efforts to revive stalled US-Iran peace talks to end their eight-week war.
The first round was held in Islamabad two weeks ago but failed to reach an agreement to end the conflict that began on February 28 and engulfed the entire Middle East. Those talks came after Pakistan brokered a two-week ceasefire on April 8, which was later extended by US President Donald Trump.
Meanwhile, Trump on Saturday said that he had cancelled a planned trip to Pakistan by special envoy Steve Witkoff and adviser Jared Kushner.
“I’ve told my people a little while ago they were getting ready to leave, and I said, ‘Nope, you’re not making an 18 hour flight to go there. We have all the cards. They can call us anytime they want, but you’re not going to be making any more 18 hour flights to sit around talking about nothing’,” Trump told Fox News via phone.
Iran has refused to hold direct talks with the US and said observations would be conveyed to Pakistan.
Some of the sticking points are said to be the Strait of Hormuz, the US blockade of Iranian ports and Iran’s enriched uranium.
