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.

Le Président Trump a signé ce soir à Versailles l’accord entre l’Iran et les États-Unis.

Cet accord ouvre la voie à une paix durable et permet la réouverture du détroit d’Ormuz.

C’est un pas important dans la bonne direction pour nos compatriotes qui permettra d’obtenir bientôt une baisse des prix de l’énergie.

@Burg256 It’s much effective to deal with the thieves directly rather than blaming the traffic lights. The traffic lights are in place to control traffic and with or without them working, thieves will continue to act if unchecked through a direct approach

CMA Clarifies Its Regulatory Mandate and Urges Public Vigilance on Investment Opportunities

The Capital Markets Authority (CMA) has issued a clarification on the scope of its mandate regarding investment opportunities offered to the public.

Not all investment arrangements fall within the definition of securities under the CMA Act, and may therefore not be subject to CMA’s regulatory oversight. This clarification, however, does not constitute an endorsement of such activities.

The Authority urges the public to exercise due diligence, verify licensed entities, and seek professional advice before committing funds.

One of the most disheartening thing in this country is being a lawyer. You know the law. You know what should be done. You watch all of that trumped over and things being done arbitrarily. And you wonder if we even have laws and that my friend, is very frustrating

[Nuwagaba Muhsin @kaduyu_Jr]

The character and conduct of our leaders matters. Their words matter. Their response to criticism matters. How they deal with people who disagree with them matters.
