Muhammad Saeed Sheikh,President of Houston Karachi Sister City Association is a Community Organizer/Business Leader and a internationally recognized volunteer.
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.

Alhamdulillah! 🇵🇰📈 A historic milestone
For the first time in 14 years, Pakistan has posted a $2.1B annual current account surplus, and the largest after 22 years.
Driven by record remittances, rising exports, and a laser focus on structural reforms, this achievement reflects the confidence of overseas Pakistanis and the resolve at home.
Special appreciation to our economic team for their commendable efforts.
Alhamdulillah! PIA returns to UK skies 🇵🇰✈️
Grateful to Allah Almighty as Pakistan stands vindicated with the restoration of our airlines operations to the United Kingdom. The reckless and irresponsible statements made by PTI members caused irreparable reputational damage to Pakistan, grounding our national carrier for years, from key global routes, including the UK and Europe.
With over 1.6 million people of Pakistani heritage living in the UK and thousands of British nationals in Pakistan, today’s announcement brings long-awaited relief and new opportunities for families and friends to reunite. As Pakistan’s third-largest trading partner, this ease in travel between the UK and Pakistan will help this vital trade relationship grow manifold.
Special appreciation for the DPM, Defence Minister, the entire Aviation team, and all other stakeholders, for their tireless efforts in this regard.
Job well done! 👏🏻
Deeply saddened by the loss of precious lives in the tragic flash floods in Texas, USA.
Hope the ongoing rescue efforts will be successful in saving more people from this natural calamity.
Having suffered a similar incident in north west Pakistan just a few days ago, we can fully understand the pain and suffering of the bereaved families.
Our thoughts and prayers are with President Trump @realDonaldTrump and the American nation at this difficult time.
