VP Pool Report #4: Arrival in Pakistan 🛬
Good morning! AF2 landed at PAF Base Nur Khan in Islamabad at 10:29 a.m. local time.
No visitors to the press cabin during the flight, but TV was turned to Fox News so we could watch the landing of Artemis II.
VP exited the plane at 10:46 and shook hands with local officials listed below. A young boy handed him a bouquet of flowers.
VP and other officials then walked down a red carpet past an honor guard. Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner were standing at the end of the red carpet and greeted the VP before he got into his vehicle. Pool was stationed too far from the group to see any exchanges among the officials

Pakistan welcomes all delegates including journalists from participating nations, traveling in relation to Islamabad Talks 2026. To this end, all airlines are requested to permit boarding to all such individuals without Visa. Immigration authorities in Pakistan will issue them Visa on Arrival.
With the greatest humility, I am pleased to announce that the Islamic Republic of Iran and the United States of America, along with their allies, have agreed to an immediate ceasefire everywhere including Lebanon and elsewhere, EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY.
I warmly welcome the sagacious gesture and extend deepest gratitude to the leadership of both the countries and invite their delegations to Islamabad on Friday, 10th April 2026, to further negotiate for a conclusive agreement to settle all disputes.
Both parties have displayed remarkable wisdom and understanding and have remained constructively engaged in furthering the cause of peace and stability. We earnestly hope, that the ‘Islamabad Talks’ succeed in achieving sustainable peace and wish to share more good news in coming days!

There has been unnecessary speculation in the media regarding peace talks to end ongoing conflict in the Middle East. In reality, US-Iran indirect talks are taking place through messages being relayed by Pakistan. In this context, the United States has shared 15 points, being deliberated upon by Iran.
Brotherly countries of Turkiye and Egypt, among others, are also extending their support to this initiative.
Pakistan remains fully committed to promoting peace and continues to make every effort to ensure stability in the region and beyond.
Dialogue and Diplomacy is the only way forward!

With Australia's victory over India in the final, it meant the circle of parity for all 10 teams was complete ♻
