A senior Pakistani source claims Pakistan is confident it can persuade Iran to engage in talks with the US. On Polymarket, the odds of no qualifying diplomatic meeting occurring by June 30 are at 3.7% YES, up from 2% yesterday.

Pakistan’s claimed role as facilitator has moved the diplomatic meeting market. At 3.7% YES, traders are pricing in a higher likelihood of a meeting than they were a day ago. The market’s actual USDC volume is about $400/day, meaning only $462 is needed to shift the odds by 5 points.

The Iranian demands and uranium enrichment markets haven’t moved. Trump’s agreement to Iranian demands sits at 47.5% YES, and the uranium enrichment agreement market holds at 36.9% YES.

Pakistan has diplomatic relationships with both Iran and the US, which makes it one of the few countries positioned to broker direct contact. The claim from a senior source, rather than anonymous speculation, points to an actual diplomatic channel being explored. A YES share in the “no meeting” market at 3.7¢ pays $1 if no meeting happens by June 30.

Watch for Pakistan’s next diplomatic steps and any official confirmations of scheduled talks. Statements from Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi or Iranian state media about upcoming meetings could move the market further.
