Dr. Muhammad Khan (Defense Analyst):

Iran and Pakistan have historic relations and Iran supported Pakistan even in 1965 and 1971 wars. However, due to instability in Afghanistan, some misunderstandings created between Pakistan and Iran. However, once again, Pakistan-Iran relations are back on the right trajectory. Even the Iranian people want strong trade and economic relations between both the countries. There is a dire need of long-term planning to get the advantages of potentials between the two countries. The universities should be established where students of Pakistan and Iran can get education. The Iranian Foreign Minister is on an official visit to Pakistan where all aspects of bilateral relations and the emerging regional situation will be discussed.
