“A source said that Araghchi will hold meetings with the Pakistani partners on Saturday and Sunday to discuss resumption of negotiations with the United States.”
SINGLE SOURCE
The claim that Araghchi is scheduled to meet with Pakistani partners on Saturday and Sunday is not directly corroborated by multiple independent sources. One web search mentions Araghchi arriving in Islamabad to meet with Pakistani leaders, but the specific schedule of Saturday and Sunday meetings is only implied or stated in the context of the original claim's source material, making it difficult to confirm with multiple independent reports.
