Ashura is a time of remembrance, sacrifice and reflection.
Today, on the 10th day of Muharram, we are reminded of Imam Hussain's unwavering commitment to truth and dignity. His timeless legacy reminds us of the enduring values of faith, service to one another, and the belief that justice is always worth fighting for.
Our City’s strength comes from the many faith traditions that shape it — and our shared struggle against injustice and oppression.
May we carry these values forward as we continue building a more just City for every New Yorker.
We express our gratitude to the Prime Minister of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, Shehbaz Sharif, for his message of solidarity with our people.
We appreciate this gesture of international support, which is of great significance to our people under these circumstances.
🇵🇰🇮🇱 A peace negotiation in Switzerland allegedly came within inches of becoming an international assassination crisis.
Geopolitical analyst Pepe Escobar claims Pakistani military intelligence intercepted a Mossad plan to assassinate Army Chief Asim Munir during the talks, then sent Israel a message with zero room for creative interpretation.
"If you touch our delegation, we're going to wipe you off the map, period."

Alhamdulillah, the First High-Level Committee Meeting under the framework of the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding has concluded successfully in Bürgenstock, Switzerland.
The discussions were held in a positive and constructive atmosphere and yielded encouraging progress, including agreement on a roadmap toward a final deal within 60 days, the establishment of a High-Level Committee to provide political oversight, and the commencement of further technical talks.
I commend the leadership of both the United States as well as Iran for their continued commitment to constructive engagement, and thank all brotherly and friendly countries for their valuable support in advancing this historic process.
In particular, I would like to express my gratitude to our brotherly country Qatar, for its critical support in creating the conditions necessary for these negotiations to move forward.
A word of thanks to the Swiss Government for their facilitation in hosting these talks.
I would like to pay special tribute to Field Marshal Asim Munir whose untiring efforts made these talks a success. His dedication, commitment and perseverance are indeed commendable without which there would have been no progress.
I would like to pay my warm compliments and heartfelt gratitude to Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar, for his diplomatic efforts along with his team at the Foreign Office. I also deeply appreciate the hard work of Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi who contributed immensely to the success of these talks.
Pakistan will continue to play its honest and sincere role in advancing dialogue and diplomacy towards a peaceful and lasting resolution.

It was a pleasure to meet H.E. Ignazio Cassis, Vice President and Foreign Minister of Switzerland, on the sidelines of the ongoing technical talks following the Islamabad MoU in Bürgenstock.
I thanked Switzerland for its support and constructive engagement following the signing of the historic Islamabad MoU. We agreed that its successful implementation will contribute to regional peace, stability and global economic prosperity.
We affirmed our commitment to strengthening bilateral cooperation in all areas of mutual interest. I also invited Vice President Cassis to visit Pakistan to further strengthen the longstanding friendship between our two countries.
Pakistani Prime Minister @CMShehbaz: "I must, at this point in time, with fullest sincerity at my domain, thank President Donald Trump for his visionary and very dynamic leadership, which has resulted in this meeting here today... I think here we are going to have wonderful discussions which will lead to, hopefully, very productive results in times to come. I'd like to thank @VP for his very able leadership in leading the United States team."

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.
Congratulations 🇵🇰 Pakistan for facilitating the #peace#agreement! Your tireless efforts have borne fruit and you have made an enormous beneficial contribution to the region and the world. Mubarak ho and bohot shukriya. 🕊️
