Pakistan’s diplomatic efforts between the U.S. and Iran have helped prevent a return to full-blown war.

The EU is ready to contribute to a sustainable and peaceful resolution.

We bring economic leverage, hard-won nuclear expertise, longstanding relationships with Gulf partners, and direct engagement with Iran itself.
