Pakistan wants a “permanent termination” of the US-Israeli war on Iran, Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar told Antalya Diplomacy Forum on Friday, calling on Washington and Tehran to “show flexibility.”

Axar.az informs, citing Anadolu Agency, that Pakistan is mediating between the US and Iran after the war began on February 28 and has hosted the highest-level talks between the two sides since they snapped diplomatic ties in 1979.

Islamabad’s “objective is not ceasefire extension. Our main objective is the permanent termination of war," and an agreement between the parties, Dar told the high-level segment of the forum in the Turkish resort city of Antalya.

About Pakistan’s ongoing mediation, Dar said: “More than 80% of the work has been done. And a couple of things are (remaining)… both parties have to show flexibility.”
