ISLAMABAD (PEN) : Pakistan, China, and Iran are set to convene a trilateral meeting to address counterterrorism and security concerns, reflecting Beijing’s increasing involvement in the region. The meeting, following the inaugural one held in Beijing last year, aims to bolster cooperation in combating terrorism and safeguarding the Belt and Road Initiative. With a focus on reviewing the security landscape and thwarting threats posed by terrorist groups, particularly those targeting Chinese interests along the shared border between Pakistan and Iran, the collaboration seeks to neutralize such risks. Recent tensions between Pakistan and Iran over alleged terrorist activities have spurred diplomatic efforts, including the deployment of military officials and discussions on a security pact to enhance coordination and prevent future escalations.
