Who is Kamal Kharaji?
81-year-old Kamal Kharraji is counted among Iran’s most experienced and influential diplomats.
- Was Foreign Minister of Iran from 1997 to 2005
- Joined Supreme Leader Office after leaving the post of Foreign Minister
- Considered close to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei
- Currently active in the role of foreign advisor to Mojtaba Khamenei.
Kharaji also studied in America. He received his PhD degree from the University of Houston in 1975. His experience in diplomacy and international politics is considered very long.
Why was Pakistan contacting him?
In the current situation, efforts for peace were going on between Iran and America. In a way, Pakistan was playing the role of a messenger in this conversation. According to sources, most of the messages being sent from Pakistan were being delivered to Iran through Kamal Kharaji. Therefore, he was considered an important face of this entire diplomatic process.
Why attack on Kharaji?
The biggest question arising is why Kharaji was targeted amid peace talks. Experts believe that he was active in efforts for a peace agreement on behalf of Iran. In such a situation, this attack could also be an attempt to weaken those efforts. However, Israel has not yet commented on this attack.
Tension increased due to Trump’s warning
Meanwhile, a statement by former US President Donald Trump is also being discussed a lot. He said that if the war continues, America can bomb Iran heavily. Trump said that if necessary, Iran would be sent to the “Stone Age”. On the other hand, a strict statement has also come from Iran. Iran’s leadership has clearly said that the conflict will continue until their goals are achieved.
How far have efforts for a peace agreement reached?
At present, many countries are trying to mediate to reduce tension between Iran and America. Countries involved in this initiative:
- China
- Türkiye
- Pakistan
- egypt
- saudi arabia
It is being told that Vice President JD Vance is handling the responsibility of negotiations from America’s side. China has also given a 5-point proposal to America to end this crisis. The main points are:
- implement a ceasefire
- Opening of the Strait of Hormuz
- stop attacks on iran
- reducing regional tensions
But after the attack on Kamal Kharaji, these peace efforts may face a big setback.
Will the risk of war increase?
Experts believe that if this attack is indeed found to be linked to America or Israel, it could further increase tension in the Middle East. On the other hand, if Kharaji’s condition remains serious, then political and military reaction to this issue may intensify within Iran too. At present, the eyes of the world are fixed on both Tehran and Washington.
