Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif heading a high-profile delegation will be visiting Pakistan on Tuesday.

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh announced this in a presser today. He further said the FM will be heading a high-ranking political and economic delegation. Zarif will have meetings with Chief of Army Staff General Qamar Javed Bajwa, and other Pakistani political and military officials.

Earlier, Zarif paid tribute to Pakistan’s national poet Dr Allama Muhammad Iqbal on his 143rd birth anniversary.
