I also have a propaganda theory if you want I can also give you that.

 

Read the thread of COAS visit to Iran. This will help you understand. These high level visits are not planned suddenly but they are scheduled over time. The spy chief meeting has nothing to do with this visit. I think when COAS went there Pakistan and Iran were engaged in defense corporation but Spy chief meeting is also a big story so cannot rule out both.

 

Must be their command structure. He is the most high ranking military official in Iran.

 

From 5th Nov 2017

Making optimal use of existing capacities in various international and regional communities, using the two countries’ defense and political potentials to help settle regional conflicts, and joint cooperation between the two sides free of foreign intervention were also among the topics of discussion in the Monday meeting.
