Pakistan is hosting peace talks between the US and Iran following a two-week ceasefire agreement negotiated by Islamabad. The talks begin Saturday in the capital, with 10,000 security personnel deployed. Pakistan's military chief Asim Munir led the reconciliation effort. The country faces risks if negotiations fail, potentially triggering conflicts with Iran, Afghanistan, and India simultaneously. Pakistan's unique diplomatic position as trusted by multiple parties enabled this achievement.
