Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi received Munir, who is heading a high-level political-security delegation, at a formal meeting shortly after he arrived in Tehran to deliver a message from Washington.
The delegation includes representatives from Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry, security institutions and technical experts.

The purpose of the Pakistani delegation’s visit is to deliver a US message to the Iranian leadership and to plan the next round of negotiations.
The arrival of Pakistan’s top military official underscores Islamabad’s growing role as a key mediator between Tehran and Washington.
Earlier on Wednesday, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei confirmed that Tehran would host a Pakistani delegation, adding that indirect exchanges of messages between Iran and the United States continue.
“Following the talks that took place in Islamabad, and also the discussions that the Pakistani side has had with the United States, our views have been conveyed and heard,” Baghaei said.
“Naturally, during this visit, the two sides are expected to discuss their viewpoints in detail.”
The diplomatic push comes as a two-week ceasefire between Iran and the United States, brokered by Pakistan, remains in effect.
The Munir-led delegation is expected to discuss the framework for a possible second round of talks between Tehran and Washington, with Islamabad emerging as the likely venue. The first round of talks in Islamabad failed to produce an agreement over the weekend.
The truce took effect after 40 days of fighting that began on February 28, when the United States and Israel launched an unprovoked war of aggression against Iran.
