Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian met with Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif in New York, according to a report from Iran's state news agency IRNA.

The meeting took place on the sidelines of the current session of the United Nations General Assembly, which has drawn numerous heads of state and government to New York this week for a series of bilateral and multilateral engagements alongside the formal proceedings.

IRNA's report did not detail the specific topics discussed between the two leaders or whether any agreements or statements resulted from the meeting.

Iran and Pakistan share a border and maintain a long-standing bilateral relationship that spans trade, security and regional political cooperation, with leaders from both countries periodically meeting on the margins of international gatherings such as the UN General Assembly.

The meeting between Pezeshkian and Sharif adds to a series of high-level diplomatic engagements taking place in New York this week as part of the UN General Assembly's current session, during which numerous world leaders are holding bilateral talks alongside their formal addresses to the assembly.
