Summary Pakistan welcomed the US-Iran understanding, with Ishaq Dar saying it will promote regional peace, stability, and global economic confidence through continued diplomacy

ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar said on Monday Pakistan warmly welcomed the understanding reached between the United States and Iran.

“We look forward to the formal signing ceremony on 19 June in Geneva and remain confident that this positive development will pave the way for enduring peace, stability and shared prosperity for the region and beyond,” he said in a post on X.

This significant breakthrough reflects the power of sustained diplomatic engagement and the collective resolve of friendly nations to choose dialogue over confrontation, he wrote in a post on X.

It also sends a reassuring message to the international community and provides much-needed confidence and stability to global markets and the world economy, particularly for developing countries that are most vulnerable to regional instability.

Throughout this period, Pakistan remained actively engaged with all concerned parties and consistently advocated restraint and constructive engagement, maintaining that dialogue and diplomacy remain the only viable means for the resolution of all issues.

“We appreciate the trust reposed in Pakistan by the leadership of both the United States and Iran and commend their commitment to remaining engaged in pursuit of a peaceful and negotiated outcome.”

“We are also grateful for the support and sincere diplomatic efforts of our brotherly countries, including Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Türkiye, Egypt , and others, as well as the United Nations and our international partners who remained closely engaged throughout this process and helped achieve this important milestone,” read the post.

As negotiations continue on the outstanding matters, Pakistan stands ready to support every endeavour aimed at consolidating this progress.
