President Trump on TruthSocial: Thank you to Pakistan and its Great Prime Minister and Field Marshall, two fantastic people!!! President DONALD J. TRUMP

I thanked her for Japan’s support for Pakistan’s efforts in facilitating the U.S.–Iran ceasefire and the talks in Islamabad.
Pakistan remains committed to sustaining this momentum for peace and stability.
We agreed to further strengthen Pakistan–Japan cooperation and stay in close touch.
Saudi Arabia Announces USD 3 Billion Additional Support, Extends USD 5 Billion Deposit: Finance Minister
Federal Minister for Finance and Revenue, Senator Muhammad Aurangzeb, has informed that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has committed USD 3 billion in additional deposits, with disbursement expected in the coming week. He further stated that the existing USD 5 billion Saudi deposit would no longer remain subject to the earlier annual rollover arrangement and would instead be extended for a longer period.
The Finance Minister made the annoucement while talking to members of the media in Washington, D.C., on the sidelines of the World Bank–IMF Spring Meetings 2026, and shared important details regarding Saudi financial support for Pakistan and the government’s external financing strategy.
Senator Aurangzeb said this support comes at a critical time for Pakistan’s external financing needs and would help reinforce foreign exchange reserves and strengthen the country’s external account. He reiterated the government’s commitment to maintaining reserves in line with its obligations to markets and under the IMF-supported programme, including the objective of achieving around USD 18 billion in reserves, equivalent to approximately 3.3 months of import cover, by the end of the fiscal year.
The Finance Minister noted that Pakistan had successfully repaid its USD 1.4 billion Eurobond last week, describing it as a “non-event,” and reaffirmed that the government remained fully committed to meeting all upcoming external obligations and maturities on time. He emphasized that Pakistan’s external financing plan is clearly defined and being implemented in a responsible and disciplined manner.
Referring to his engagements in Washington, Senator Aurangzeb said that he, along with the Governor, State Bank of Pakistan and Pakistan’s Ambassador to the United States, had held a detailed meeting with Saudi Finance Minister H.E. Mohammed bin Abdullah Al-Jadaan. He recalled that he had also met the Saudi Finance Minister in Islamabad the previous Friday, but noted that the government had deliberately refrained from commenting publicly in the absence of formal communication, despite media reports and speculation, as such matters required clarity and joint understanding before being shared.
The Finance Minister expressed profound gratitude to the leadership of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, particularly His Royal Highness Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Saudi Finance Minister H.E. Mohammed bin Abdullah Al-Jadaan, and the Saudi Vice Finance Minister, for their continued support and close cooperation. He particularly appreciated the efforts made to bring the support package to fruition.
Senator Aurangzeb also acknowledged the role of Pakistan’s political and economic leadership in securing and operationalizing the support. He thanked the Prime Minister of Pakistan, the Field Marshal, the Deputy Prime Minister, the Governor, State Bank of Pakistan, the Finance Secretary Mr. Imdad Ullah Bosal, and their respective teams for their contributions and coordination.
The Finance Minister stated that, at this juncture, sentiment and confidence were critically important. He said Pakistan was receiving unprecedented appreciation from international financial institutions, the IMF, the World Bank, institutional investors, and counterparts he was meeting in Washington. He noted that the international community was particularly recognizing Pakistan’s recent diplomatic and facilitative role in helping enable dialogue between parties that had not held face-to-face discussions for decades.
He said this international appreciation, coupled with Saudi Arabia’s timely financial support, provided Pakistan with important momentum and confidence going forward, both for the economy and for the external account, including its commercial dimensions.
Senator Aurangzeb further noted that Pakistan was advancing its broader external financing agenda, including the recently announced Global Medium-Term Note (GMTN) programme and the planned inaugural Panda Bond issuance, as part of efforts to diversify funding sources and strengthen market access.
The Finance Minister concluded by reaffirming the government’s commitment to macroeconomic stability, fulfillment of external obligations, reform continuity, and sustained engagement with bilateral and multilateral partners. He said a more detailed interaction with the media would take place at the conclusion of the visit.

جی ایسا صرف ہم سب کا فخر PAF پاکستان ائیر فورس ہی کر سکتی ہے.
Today is a proud moment for Pakistan. Few could have imagined our nation taking a leading role on the global stage, yet here we stand.
The Prime Minister, Deputy Prime Minister, and our Field Marshal have played a pivotal role in restoring the country’s stature and pride. Their leadership has brought renewed confidence and honor to Pakistan, making every Pakistani truly proud. 🇵🇰
Alhamdolillah!
ایک بڑے عالمی بحران سے بچانے اور ایران و امریکہ جنگ بندی کروانے پر میں وزیر اعظم شہباز شریف، نائب وزیر اعظم اسحاق ڈار اور فیلڈ مارشل سید عاصم منیر کی بے مثال سفارتی کاوشوں کو خراج تحسین پیش کرتا ہوں۔ ایران اور امریکہ کا مثبت کردار ادا کرتے ہوئے امن کا راستہ اپنانا خوش آئند ہے۔ دعا ہے کہ یہ کاوشیں مستقل عالمی استحکام کی جانب ایک نتیجہ خیز قدم ثابت ہوں۔
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!
