Pakistan PM: US-Iran memorandum offers viable path to peace

Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has stated that the US-Iran memorandum presents the most viable route to achieving peace in the region. Sharif urged for increased regional cooperation, highlighting that Islamabad and Tehran share a common goal of promoting peace and de-escalating tensions. Both countries exchange information on key issues during their meetings with Iranian officials.
This comes following a series of military tensions in the area, triggered by US forces striking Iranian positions, which in turn led to retaliatory strikes from Iran targeting the UAE and Jordan. US Treasury Secretary Scott Besant had previously warned Iran of potential further sanctions unless it refrains from negotiating with preconditions.
However, Iran maintains its right to control passage through the Strait of Hormuz and imposes transit fees.
