Iran and Pakistan announced Monday that their ambassadors would resume their duties after the two countries agreed to de-escalate tensions following an exchange of deadly strikes last week, APA reports citing AFP.
"It has been mutually agreed that the ambassadors of both countries may return to their respective posts by January 26," said a joint statement by the foreign ministries in Tehran and Islamabad.
Iran's Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian is also due to visit Pakistan on January 29 following an invitation from his Pakistani counterpart Jalil Abbas Jilani, the statement said.
The decisions were announced following a phone call between Jilani and Amir-Abdollahian.
Pakistan launched on Thursday airstrikes on "militant targets" in Iran, two days after similar Iranian strikes on its territory.
