Historically, the relationship between Pakistan and Iran has been exemplary. Iran was the first country to recognise Pakistan as a sovereign nation after it gained independence in August 1947. The Quaid-e-Azam, Muhammad Ali Jinnah, Pakistan’s founder, was the progenitor of close relations with Iran and had appointed one of his trusted lieutenants, Raja Ghazanfar Ali Khan, as Pakistan’s first ambassador to Iran. In May 1949, Prime Minister Liaquat Ali Khan paid his first state visit to Iran while the Shah of Iran became the first foreign head of state to visit Pakistan in March 1950.
