At the Bürgenstock today, I met with 🇵🇰 PM @CMShehbaz.
As a country that places great importance on mediation, dialogue and #GoodOffices, 🇨🇭 values #Pakistan’s important role in supporting continued discussions on the implementation of the agreed 🇺🇸-🇮🇷 MoU.
I reaffirmed Switzerland’s readiness to support initiatives aimed at de-escalation, regional #stability and lasting #peace.
JD Vance:
I have joked that I have two very, very important people in my life.
An Indian and a Pakistani.
The Indian is my wife, and the Pakistani is Field Marshal Munir.

VP @JDVance with a message to Israeli cabinet members who have been attacking President Trump:
"Donald J. Trump is the only head of state in the entire world who is sympathetic to the nation of Israel at this moment in time."
"If I was in the cabinet of the Israeli government, I might not be attacking the only powerful ally that I have anywhere left in the entire world."
I am honoured to announce that the historic ‘Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding’ has been electronically signed today between the United States of America and the Islamic Republic of Iran. The Memorandum has been signed by honourable Presidents of both the countries and also endorsed by me as the mediator. The signing of this agreement at the highest level of the respective governments demonstrates the commitment of both sides to a diplomatic resolution of the conflict. Islamabad MoU shall enter into force with immediate effect and as a first step, Islamic Republic of Iran will instantly reopen the Strait of Hormuz and the United States of America will immediately lift the naval blockade.
I offer my heartfelt congratulations and sincere appreciation to the President of the United States, Donald J. Trump whose steadfast commitment to diplomacy and preference for peaceful resolution have once again helped end a conflict that could have led to devastating consequences for the region and beyond. I also commend the dedication and tireless efforts of the United States negotiating team, including J.D. Vance, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, for their invaluable contributions to this achievement.
I express my profound respect and appreciation to His Eminence Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Hosseini Khamenei, the Supreme Leader of Islamic Republic of Iran and President Masoud Pezeshkian for their wisdom, foresight and statesmanship in embracing the cause of peace. I also wish to recognize the efforts of the Iranian negotiating team, including Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, Abbas Araghchi and Eskandar Momeni, whose patience, perseverance and commitment to constructive engagement were instrumental in bringing this agreement to fruition.
I would especially like to acknowledge the sincere efforts and constructive engagement of the leadership of the State of Qatar in helping reach this point. I also highly commend the leadership of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the Republic of Türkiye and the Arab Republic of Egypt for their indispensable role and invaluable contributions in this regard.
I would also like to make special mention of Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir, whose tireless efforts, selfless dedication and instrumental role were critical in facilitating this breakthrough and advancing the cause of peace and regional stability.
May this Memorandum of Understanding serve as an enduring foundation for greater understanding, mutual respect and shared prosperity for the complete region.

ABD ve İran arasında varılan mutabakatı, bölgemizde sulh-u sükûnun hâkim kılınması adına önemli bir gelişme olarak görüyor, memnuniyetle karşılıyorum.
Tüm dünyanın uzun süredir ihtiyaç duyduğu bu haberin bölgemizde kalıcı huzur ve güven ortamının tesisine vesile olmasını yürekten temenni ediyorum.
İmzaların atılacağı güne kadarki süreçte gerilimi tırmandıracak söylem, tahrik ve eylemlerden kaçınılması ve olası sabotajlara karşı dikkatli olunması gerektiğinin altını önemle çiziyorum.
Bu neticenin alınmasında ABD ve İran liderlikleri başta olmak üzere müstesna ara buluculuk gayretleri için Pakistan’a teşekkür ediyorum.
Ayrıca Katar ve Suudi Arabistan’ın diplomatik girişimlere sağladıkları desteği takdirle karşıladığımı ifade etmek istiyorum.
Türkiye olarak bölgemizde barışın, istikrarın ve huzurun tesisine yönelik her türlü çabayı desteklemeye, diplomasi ve uluslararası hukuk temelinde kalıcı çözümlere katkı sunmaya devam edeceğiz.
