Pakistani residents in twin cities of Islamabad and Rawalpindi are bracing for significant disruptions as the region hosts high-stakes US-Iran diplomatic talks. Expected to bring world leaders to the table, the negotiations have already led to a flurry of road closures and security measures, severely impacting daily life for locals. In addition to the inconvenience of restricted travel routes, courts in the area have been forced to halt proceedings, further exacerbating the economic strain on the region. As the international community converges on Pakistan, residents are left to navigate the logistical challenges and economic fallout of hosting such a high-profile event.
