Israeli Ambassador to the UN, Gilad Erdan, expressed a lack of trust in Pakistan's ability to mediate peace negotiations between Iran and the United States, stating, "We don't trust Pakistan." This sentiment was voiced ahead of potential talks in Islamabad, highlighting a significant diplomatic hurdle. Erdan's remarks underscore deep-seated skepticism regarding Pakistan's neutrality and its capacity to foster a genuine resolution between the two nations, suggesting that any peace process involving Pakistan as a mediator would face considerable international scrutiny and doubt from key stakeholders like Israel.
